Q: I rent a room in a home my landlords son doesn’t like my girlfriend and is trying to stop me from having her come over
Can he limit who comes to visit me , I’m on a month to month and my landlord has no problem with my girlfriend
A: You are likely able to have whomever you wish visit but the exact language of your lease is what controls. Unless your landlord delegates part or all of his powers to the son, the son has nothing to say about who your guests are. Do understand though that being on a month to month tenancy allows your landlord (influenced by his son or otherwise) to terminate your tenancy with the required notice, any time he wishes.
