If I get an apartment and let someone live there without being on the lease what could the consequences be?

Question

I just wanted to know if I would get evicted. I know that after 2 weeks they have to be on the lease.

Answer 1

You can get evicted. The reason they want to know who's living there is for insurance reasons. But honestly how would they 'know' if someone is actually living there? I wouldn't want to live in a place if my landlord was in my house all the time, checking on things.

Answer 2

Yes, you could get evicted.  Also, if they cause damage your insurance may not want to pay for the damage.  Follow the lease, save yourself problems.

Answer 3

Tenants can not move in extra people. They can have guest. A guest can stay a week or 2, but if it appears that they have moved in the landlord can make a rent adjustment by raising your rent or he can evict

Answer 4

Yes you can be evicted.  

Answer 5

You would have to be given a Notice to Cure - demanding that you get rid of the unauthorized occupants first. If you fail to get them out, you would all be evicted.
