Apartment rules/laws

[Dearth]

When I rented I had renters insurance which is the very basic thing that anybody who rents should have every insurance provider has that it IMO should be made mandatory to get if you rent.

My landlord had a no pet clause but made an exception when I had no issues to my landlord requesting the BCSPCA doing random checks on my cats and when I had gotten my tanks my landlord had me sign a contract that if the tank burst it was my cost to clean up which again I had no issues with

Bottom line if you rent it is extremely important to have signed documentation from either your landlord or manager otherwise you could end up holding a very large bill and no recourse verbal or gentleman's agreements are not a good way to do business
