Question 2

Paul Salmonte leased Richard and Mildred Eilertson's Florida home in 1985. The Eilertsons lived in Houston, Texas, but sometimes returned to inspect the house. The Eilertsons also had an exterminator go to the home on a monthly basis. By May 1986, Salmonte decided that the inspections and extermination were occurring too often and began refusing regular access. The Eilertsons discovered that Salmonte had breached the terms of the lease agreement that prohibited changes in carpeting, wall paper, and locks, and then went to inspect the home and pets. The Eilertsons noticed that one of their rugs had been moved to the garage and had a car parked on it. They then filed a complaint for eviction for breach of the lease agreement. Could the Eilertsons have Salmonte evicted for violations of the rules?

Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Yes, a landlord can treat a tenant as in breach of the lease agreement when the tenant does not comply with reasonable rules imposed from the start of the lease. Here the tenant had clearly overstepped in terms of compliance and was in breach.
