Randolph Lozoya: if the lease says no alcohol then that's what it means. Maybe hes a religious man and doesn't want alcohol in his house
Reginald Maxi: Er, since it's his house, and especially since you signed a lease stating "no alcohol," he definitely can do that. So technically, he could evict you for breaking your lease if you have alcohol when you agreed not to.Since it seems reasonable for an adult to have a beer in his or her own home, I would just talk to him about it calmly and seriously. Explain that you won't be having wild parties or anything, you just want to be able to drink a beer now and then, etc. Maybe he has a serious religious or other opposition to alcohol, you never know. Maybe he'll realise you're responsible and everything, and agree you can have alcohol, just no parties. But if he says no, be prepared to do your drinking at a bar instead....Show more
Enriqueta Steffen: if the contract you all signed specifically stated no alcohol, then! you agreed to that condition when you leased/rented the apartment. so, if you have alcohol on property, you just violated your contract.
Ofelia Kieck: You're stuck. If the lease had meant, no loud drunken parties, then that's what it would have said. "No alcohol" means you cannot sit quietly in your apartment and have a beer by yourself. You can get evicted if you do.You can try to change his mind all you want, but at the end of the day, he has a signed contract stating that you agree not to drink while on his property. You can't change that by oral agreement; you'd have to get him to sign another lease with you that doesn't have that part in it....Show more
Lana Uliano: yup you signed a contract, hes got the right. maybe next time a lease comes up ask him change the lease to loosen the rules. If not find another place i would say.
Ewa Homrich: What do you mean no alcohol? that the lease say you cant have a beer, or a glass of wine with your dinner? are ! you kidding? But then let me tell you this, my ex partner [ wh! ich is no longer with me thanks goodness] whenever I invited him to have a wine with dinner, he would say [ im not drinking alcohol] my answer? neither Am I Im just having a glass of wine!
Monroe Rainey: Depends on the wording...as in all contracts. If you signed it, and it says NO Alcohol...then your kind of stuck.The worse thing with renting is, the land lord doesn't make money unless the place is occupied, so if he doesn't like your money, or thinks he can get more, he could be sly and use the use of alcohol as an excuse to evict you later as he searches for a replacement tenant now.Ya, you can say it....What a bastard.Then again, there might be specific wording in the contract that allow for circumstances.On the other hand, maybe he can't find someone else, maybe your money is the best around. It might do well to find out why he objects to alcohol in the first place. Because there isn't a presidant for someone elses religious beliefs dictating other people. If you! think you have a storng case and have another place to go, you might try renegotiating the contract by saying you'll leave.Its up to you and depending how important it is and how far your willing to push....Show more
Giovanna Cramblit: As your lease says "No alcohol" then your landlord is right in this situation. Even one beer is a break of the lease, if you wanted to argue you that point you should not have signed his lease
