Reply to comment by Low_Tourist in Apartments for rent by [deleted]

Not sure how this comment will show up in the chain however what the OP is talking about are occupancy restrictions. You can absolutely rent a 1 bedroom, pregnant with a dependant as the pregnancy doesn't "count". However, as the OP just learned when anyone goes to renew the same occupancy rules exist and now they have 3 people in 1 bedroom which breaks the 2 person to bedroom rule.

It's a rough life for a wyfer out here in the 4-1-7. Rollin' up to the Price Choppers, lookin' to score some Mother's Brew. Grabbing coffee at the Mudhouse with mah hot yoga homies and mah JRA crew. Ridin' round Battlefield looking for the CBD without the SPD, always hasslin' me.

Ah, I see. "Allows for the landlord to enforce 2 people/bedroom."

Sounds like a shit landlord tbh. I've never heard of somebody getting in trouble/not being able to renew a lease because they had a baby in their bedroom. Many parents keep the crib in their room for awhile after birth, makes getting up in the middle of the night easier.

Seems like your landlord wants an excuse to boot you and jack up prices for the next person. I'm sorry you're in this situation. Housing in this town is abysmal.
