[quote=Anonymous]And the landlord just imposed a set of "house rules" a week after the lease was signed. I have met with the landlord and she says that she thinks dd is a wonderful and responsible college student. These rules are really restrictive and they were not mentioned at the time of signing. Dd signed and I signed as a guarantor in case she doesn't have enough work hours or something and can't pay rent. The rules are:

- no overnight guests (we knew about this one upfront and it's fine) 
- guests must stay on the first floor of the house 
- guests must leave by 10 pm 
- no food may be consumed outside of the kitchen 
- you must pick a day to wash your clothes 
- all dishes must be washed after each and every meal
- kitchen must be swept after every meal

Now, when dd and I met with the landlord, she only told us about the overnight guest rule. Dd said that's fine. Otherwise my daughter and the other girl in the house are pretty self regulating. I have a feeling this landlord is going to drop by often to make sure the rules are followed. I know how my daughter is at home, she is neat and will usually deep clean the house on Sunday mornings. I guess it is a little odd that this lady randomly gave them new rules to follow as if it is a halfway house or something. I know his because I visited yesterday to drop off something for dd and she showed me the rule sheet. Honestly I get it, this lady wants to make sure the girls don't destroy her house and I thought that's what the deposit was for. It really seems like they are living with even more rules than a dorm.
