Yes he is.
When I lived in a rented house, I was only allowed 5 people in.
I couldn't have any animals not even a fish and sound was too a minimal, there were so many ''rules'' I didn't know about.
Needless to say whenever me or my boyfriend wanted friends round, we had to ask for his permission! Then one of the rules were except for the people paying for the accommodation - All guests had to leave by 22.00! |

Check your lease. I am sure there is something in there about guests of your apartment. |

possibly, depending where you live. the local ordinances are different from one city to another. |

Yep. It is probably what is known as a HIMO (house in multiple occupation). Student accommodation and supported housing are often HIMO's. They have to be inspected by the Local Authority and Fire Authority to make sure they meet the required HIMO standards. They can impose limits on the amount of people in the property, particularly the amount of people stopping over for fire reasons, so it is really them making the rules not him. If you have people stopping over and he turns a blind eye to it, he will end up in court not you, so you cant blame him really. |

Your lease agreement should clearly state the regulations on this. In most states one may visit/stay over for a max of 2 wks before being put on lease. As to how many ppl at a time-the ordinance SHOULD be in the lease, may not-but will go by the sq footage, etc. This is something you can look into quite easily through the town and just simply checking your lease, if it is not stated and there is no law-you can do as you please for the most part! |

he's the landlord.
when you signed the licensed agreement, you accepted his terms & conditions.
he says no more than 8 people, that's it. |

Yes, he is. Any more people in the house and he can be turned in to the Fire Marshall. So, do your landlord a favor and keep the overnight guests at a minimum. He can kick you out if you disobey the capacity, since it is actually breaking the law. He would really have no choice, since anything going on under his roof is technically his responsibility. |

go by what your contract says. You evers names on that contract has to stay at the property. No one else is allowed as its subletting and breach of your contract. |

Of course he can. If he's only licensed for 8 people and the county/town finds out more that eight are there...then he's in danger of losing said license. |

yeah he can do that. I'm guessing you're having people stay over all the time & that's probably what he has a problem with.
If I were a landlord, I would too. More people there means more potential for damage. |

Depends on what state you live in but here in California, I know that a landlord has that authority. Its his house. Sorry. Plus it probably has something to do with fire codes. i know that when I was looking for an apartment before We were told that my husband and I could live in a 1 bedroom apartment but when we had our twins we were told that we needed to move to a 2 bedroom apartment. |

You can let people stay over. But some leases state anyone staying longer than 30 days must be added to the lease because they're considered to be living there.
Now if you're saying you had more than 8 people over and he's saying that's too much that could be a problem. Local fire code etc.
Now if you rent and live in the same house as your landlord and he has 4 people and you're keeping 4 people then that too could present a problem.
YOu need better details. |

time for a change

Yes he can do this, he is probably talking about insurance, if your guest was to hurt themselves, falling down the stairs for instance, you would not be able to sue!! |
