Can the owner of my apartment complex ask other that live there to watch me ?

Question

because i have cought the other tenant listening to my conversation at one of my windows when they were outside walking around and another told me that the owner ask them if they can tell him when i have friends over and if they know me when they live on the other side of the complex which we do no see nor do we talk to each other our son's play together everyday.and we are a mix couple and my wife rented the apt.cause i was at work and only talk to owner on phone,and when he first saw me he was very upset and did not like us.

Answer 1

He can ask, no problem there. But why would he want to? Is there something else we should know?

Answer 2

Yes. They can't however spread vicious rumors that would potentially defame you....

But casually ask neighbors to keep an eye open, sure. Not nice, but not illegal.

Answer 3

Sure.

I am not sure what you mean, but one human can ask another human a lot of things and a lot of people will agree to do those things if they decide it is in there best interest.

The law would likely only prevent some sort of stalking, not "When was the last time you saw him move that car?" kind of questions.
