  • The renter disposes of garbage cleanly and safely, and keeps plumbing fixtures as sanitary as they allow.
  • The renter uses the electrical, plumbing, heating and other facilities and appliances reasonably.
  • The renter does not add occupants beyond the number in the rental agreement without the owner's written permission.
  • The renter stays current on every payment the agreement requires, and follows its lawful terms.
