Limits on the Number of Residents
Renter Answers

When hunting for your next rental home, make sure it has enough bedrooms to accommodate the number of people who will live there. Almost every rental owner and manager limits the number of residents who may live in a home or apartment. There are several good reasons, including ones that affect renters living next door.
         
Too many residents may cause excessive wear and tear on the property, which increases maintenance costs leading to rent increases for everyone. Each additional renter may require a parking space, which affects the availability of parking for other residents and their guests. More renters usually cause the noise level to increase, disturbing the peace and quiet enjoyed by others.
