TENANT RULES AND REGULATIONS

(Attachment 4)
It is a pleasure to welcome you as a Tenant. We believe that a good Landlord-Tenant relationship is an
important part of a positive rental experience. Positive Landlord-Tenant relationships are created, in part by,
clear communication.
These Rules and Regulations are in addition to, and made part of, the Lease Agreement. These are areas of
special concern and/or subjects that have been an issue in the past for prior Tenants. All Tenants over the age
of 18 please READ and INITIAL each section. If you have any questions or concerns regarding any subjects
below, now (before Lease signing) is the time to present them.
To protect your comfort, safety, and enjoyment, and that of your neighbors, Landlord has adopted the
following rules and regulations concerning your conduct while a Tenant of the Premises. Failure to comply
with the rules will constitute a material breach of the Lease Agreement and may constitute a just cause for
eviction. Upon giving 30 days written notice, Landlord reserves the right to amend any portion of these Rules
and Regulations.

aforementioned time considerations.
CONDUCT (_____)(_____)(_____)(_____)
§ Tenants and their guests or invitees shall not use the premises or adjacent areas in such a way as to: (1)

dispute resolution on their own. Tenant recognizes and agrees that Owner is not in a position to be an
arbiter of disputes between Tenant and other residents or neighbors of Tenant, and that it is unfair and
impractical to demand that Owner take sides between them or use Owner's authority against one
resident for the benefit of another. Therefore, Tenant agrees that under no circumstance will Owner be
required to take any sort of action whatsoever as between Tenant and other resident to resolve disputes,
nor shall Owner be required to evict, or threaten to evict, any resident because of a dispute with or
demand by Tenant, and Owner's failure to do so shall not give rise to a claim against Owner for breach
