Landlord wants to charge me for guests ESA

[Roger Bernard]

I have a guest who frequents my apartment, and has two Emotional Support Animals. The landlord is requesting that I pay registration fees and pet fees in order for the ESAs to be allowed at the complex. Is this legal?

[Nathan Gesner]

There's no question of legality. The Landlord is required to make a "reasonable accommodation" for a tenant's support animal. These animals are not prescribed to you so the Landlord is under no obligation to make an accommodation for them.

Follow the Landlord's requirements and be grateful for his kindness. I wouldn't allow the animals to visit under any circumstances.
