☼ | How Many Roomates Am I Allowed to Have When I'm Renting? |
say i decide to rent a studio apartment, can i have six roomates? or is it just up to my landlord to decide? |
|

Local law prevails, but in most places you are limited to 2 persons per bedroom, so in a studio that means 2 people total. |
|

Landlord
 |
The law has a maximum of 2 for a studio apartment, but your landlord can also say none. 6 is illegal housing. |
|

read your contract carefully.
you may be breaking laws if you sub-let. also if your roomies cause a problem you may find yourself in the deep stuff with your landlord. |
|

Laws vary by state so check that on the net - but - a smart landlord will limit the number because of the wear and water usage. 6 roommates would be like living in a kennel. |

It will most likely be addressed in your rental agreement. So, its up to your landlord. Before you ask verbally, you might ask to see the rental agreement. Some landlords might be concerned about the number of tenants sharing an apartment. If the rental agreement doesn't say there is a limit, then you have no problem. But, if you ask you are likely to get a negative response about 6 in a studio. |

6 roomates in a studio, give me a brake. At most 2 and should be one. Yes its up to the landlord and may be county or city codes. |
|

NOPE. There's city zoning standards also. Your landlord can set limits, and the city or village can set limits. Frequently a studio is just for 1 person, 2 absolute maximum. Bringing in extra roomies is generally a breach of your lease. |
|

Please .... 6 roommates in a studio? Housing codes will not allow it.
Generally, you are not allowed to have any roommates unless the landlord agrees and allows it. |

It should say in your rental agreement how many people are going to occupy the residence. It's up to the owner. |
|

Check your lease - this should answer your question.
If not you will be fine if no rent "appears" to be being paid. However beware that your landlord may try to get evidence to the contrary. |

Well it depends on the size of the house.
The fire marshals will explain it to you.
If the house is fairly big, six should be fine.
Best Of Luck!

You can have as many as you want unless it becomes a problem that other tenants are complaining about. |
