CENTRAL, SC (FOX Carolina) -
A soldier returning home for the holidays to see his wife and newborn baby in Central is being kicked out of his wife's apartment after the landlord said he is overstaying the time allowed for visitors.
Sergeant William Bolt is stationed in Missouri, but his wife has been in Central. She gave birth to their daughter two weeks ago.
Bolt said the landlord at The Groves apartment complex in Central told him he had overstayed, saying visitors are not allowed to stay in the apartments past seven days, per the agreement signed by Bolt's wife, Lily. [snip]

How long is the husband’s leave?
She lives in special student apartments catering to local Clemson students...probably the rules are set up so that other students don’t welsh out by not paying per person rental fees by doubling up in a single bedroom...(or 1 person per room) as well as trying to minimize wear. The Dimwit landlord hasn’t figured out how to figure in married couples in the mix. Hence his threat to “substantially increase the rent(doubling it to cover the other adult).
Apartment complex was built catering to students...rent is per person per bedroom. Appears to be no clear rules when it comes to married couples and a kid!
The clear rules would be in the lease.

The units are 4 BR units and they charge per person. Fairly obviously the landlord has a strong incentive to keep his four person units from becoming 8 or 12 person units by students trying to save money.
Not excusing his failure to make appropriate adjustment in this case, of course.
Did they fill out the guest over-night form?

Those one-bedrooms were not intended for families.

These are four-bedroom, four-bath units with shared common areas. If I was a student trying to study I would not appreciate families with crying babies hogging the common area.
Up-chuck... out chuck...
“Not excusing his failure to make appropriate adjustment in this case, of course. “
Think of the other three students that paid for a room expecting other rooms to be occupied by single students per the written agreements only to find out a family with a baby is occupying a unit.
You have a point but I’m not sure how the homes are constructed and the living spaces divided; a baby might not be an issue at all with other “roomies”. “Chuck” publically seems to have an issue with the husband staying not the baby. Then again even if Chuck did have an issue with baby, he would be on the receiving end of a public relations crap storm if he tries to object to baby! The main, unspoken issue may be “baby” hence Chuck’s severe hangup with hubbie!
Quite right.
However, bending the rules for a visit is a little different from his moving in.
Of course not, and I’m sure they’ll solve the issue. Husband’s got go back on duty at some point, and some arrangements will be made for baby because it’s Christmas and it’s the south and the story of a woman driven out of her apartment because of baby at Christmas time would make for horrible optics...both for Clemson and the Apartments’ owners!(what with the seasonal allusions that will be made to Baby Jesus and Mary with “no room in the inn” and all that!)
On the same site as the article, pull up the video of the Pee Wee football team being fined $500 and the coach suspended for a week for....get this, SCORING A TOUCHDOWN! And, they wonder why kids coming up today have trouble in real life!
“However, bending the rules for a visit is a little different from his moving in.”
She has already pushed the limit with a baby living there. The rules allow guests with management approval but a family can upset the student atmosphere in cramped quarters particularly during exam time.
No, for creating bad press for his boss and the apartment complex.
You publicly embarrass your company and create a national bad press event and regardless of whether you were just “enforcing the terms of the lease”, you are going to find yourself in the unemployment line.
” Appears to be no clear rules when it comes to married couples and a kid!”
Per person means per person ....
The intended occupancy is one person per room.
