Some provisions allow a landlords to raise (sometimes double) the rent when a tenant lets another person take over the premises without the landlord's permission. Occupancy may be limited to two persons per bedroom except for children born during the lease period.

If both parties can agree to the modifications, both the tenant and landlord should initial the changes. Disputes between landlords and tenants are not uncommon.
