For you to bring visitors into your room should not be his business, but since he has shown his true colour, take your balance and look for a better place. |

Did you sign tenancy agreement with him. If you did, was it contained there that you should not bring a visitor or a particular number of visitors to come at a time? You didn't tell us how many visitors you brought. I had a grand Aunty who had the most funny tenancy agreement. No generator, no family of more than 4kids. If you have 2cars you will park one inside and let those who have one park their and if there's more space left, then you can park in if not, you will park on the road. During dry season when the well goes down, there's time when everyone comes out to fetch a particular continue of water so that every family can have a little water to manage before going to buy more. You must contribute money every month for cleaning of the compound. You must not bang the doors. You must not bring prayer warriors for all night. You must not bring someone to squote without letting her know. If you are a single guy, you must not be the type that bring other friends to share flat with. So when you read the agreement and you don't like it, then don't pay. She always tell you to go through the agreement before paying. Yes she was among the landladies that never added money to her house rent till she died. While others were collecting 1k for 3bedroom flat, she was collecing 6k and 4k for the down floor. Her tenants no dey even commot. Sometimes when looking for accommodation, it's not every house that you should settle for. People like me that like privacy, will not like a compoud with plenty tenants. I can't sleep in a noisy environment so I won't like where I have a neighbor who puts gen all through the night. Can't even go to a house where there's a church that operates all night every day of the week. However, if he didn't give you any tenancy agreement to sign and he didn't even mention how many visitors you are allowed to have, seek legal advice how to get all your money back including agency and lawyer fees and all those unncessary fees some landlords collect from people. 2 Likes |

DeathToBEGGARS:Most Nigerians don't know what some landlords go through in the hands of tenants until they become one. Even some tenants park out because of some annoying fellow tenants. There use to be this guy staying on the first floor and we where right on the next floor above him. When he places music in his flat,the whole building will be vibrating. Such that if you are on the bed, it will sound as if his speakers are inside your body. I knock at his door every now and then to reduce his music. 2 Likes |

holywind:And that's how it should be. One has to clearify everything before they start paying so that you don't start having issues with landlord. Some people will agree to everything and go ahead to pay and then come back to complain later. 2 Likes |

Definitely I know that, but obviously the terms didn't state the op would be given a one month quit notice whenever he breaches the agreement, if not the op would have mentioned it, the terms I meant initially was bringing in visitors when the landlord stated in the agreement that he shouldn't LagBlogger: 1 Like |

emi1000: When quoting or explaining tenancy laws do it fully except you don't know that even the 6months is not free. because most landlords or landlady don't bother to collect the rent for the 6months or 3months depending on the duration rented doesn't mean the tenant is entitled to free stay for that period. It's only a period given by tenancy laws of govt for you to look for another apartment and you have to pay for it as well. |

Liftkid: Some House owners are just devil in human skin. My cousin's experience with her so-called landlady is worth doing a book on. A landlady that will tell you *Live with pple cos she doesn't want her facilities spoilt in a house you refurbished and still paid rent. *Not to Play music, *Not to pray loud or invite Prayer people to your house *When she sees you talking to other tenants she concludes you pple are talking about her. *Goes around telling other tenants that she went somewhere and they told her you are a witch and she now begins to fight you. For sometime,we greet the woman and she will not answer,so one of those days,we were removing things from the car and she came in,we choruses a greeting and she replied that we should stop greeting her...see me o,I no kuku like waste my greeting for bad people,so I am happy. If she sees me entering the gate and she is coming,she will run back and when she eventually passes,she will bang the gate...see person. Guy take ur landlord to your lawyer.Read the agreement he gave u well and see if there is anywhere it is written that you should not have pple live with u,than start ur own fight. These wicked landlords/ladies needs to be taught a bad lesson. |

loosecanon50: Some landlords are something else, after my service year, I joined my brother at First Artillery PHC, just two weeks with my brother, the landlord called me and told me that the receipt of the rent bore the name of my brother and not mine, that I should leave the house. I thought it was a joke but he was dead serious, thank God I later secured a house at Market junction, Rumumasi. |
