The situation you describe is called a sublet.

Read your lease to confirm that this is allowed as part of the agreement you have with your landlord.

Of course, if you choose to collect rental revenue from people without your landlord's permission, and you're collecting rent based on the landlord's assets, you may be liable to the landlord to turn all monies over to him or her.

Best practices indicate that it's always a better idea to behave within the bounds of the agreement you have with your landlord.

Under what conditions can a landlord lock out a tenant?

Probably. A landlord has no right to enter without the tenant's permission, and being in the unit without the tenant present - even with the tenant's permission - is usually a bad idea. Therefore, if only the tenant has a key, the landlord is actually protecting himself from some liability. If the tenant changes the locks, he should save the original lockset, and put it back when he leaves.


How can a landlord report a tenant's nonpayment of rent to an agency responsible for the tenant's credit rating?

You would have to take the tenant to court and have a judgment issued against them. Then collect by garnishing their wages, if they do not voluntarily pay the judgment amount. You can also report the tenant on AboutTenants.com. It was launched in 2008 so it is new, but has significant potential for landlords. It is a free sight (though does require registration for full access) that allows landlords to prepare reports on tenants and view reports that other landlords have completed. The reports are in a yes/no format so they are easy to complete, professional and unbiased. If your tenant has been added to the database, when you are taking applications you can check the information provided by the tenant to the information reported by prior landlords. It is similar to a reference but more detailed. The idea is that if enough landlords fill out tenant reports, people that rent long term will have a history, with reports that have been completed by many different landlords over many years. This could be really useful when evaluating whether or not to rent to them! Though the outstanding rent does not get reported to the credit agency, it is noted in the tenant report. Other landlords will be aware of their history and you may be able to track and find the tenant for collection purposes by using information posted by other landlords.

Tenant put a request in to the manager for the bathroom and kitchen repairs. Manager entered into bedrooms and tenant was given violations. Can a landlord enter tenants bedrooms without permission?

He can't enter the apartment without permission. Once the tenant lets him in the apartment, I suppose he can go into any room, without asking. Surely the tenants have the right to tell him not to go into certain room. This might be a question of whether they did.
