@Will Gaston this isn't rude or harsh at all - really probably the best advice I received. Thank you!

thanks @Todd Powell and @Jeremiah Lewis some really good advice. Sounds like just letting it go is best. Beyond the utilities, I was also worried about the liability of having someone basically living at the property 1/3 of the time who has no background check and not on the lease at all. Sounds like I'm over-thinking it and more than likely it will be fine. I'll be sure to add some different language to the lease next time preventing abuse

no need to be rude @Max T. I'm new at this and this is a legit question judging by the number of responses in the forum

Hi Bill - 1) no it wouldn't make any difference if it were a different male - it just bothers me that someone is living at the property half-time rent-free. 2) this unit is a basement unit below my primary home - so I can see his truck parked out front when he's here. Sounds like maybe I just need to let it go 

Hi All

One of my properties is being renting to a single, female student. The lease stipulates no visitor can stay more than 48 hours without being added to the lease. Her boyfriend is now staying at the property for 48 hours, leaves for a few days and then comes back for another 48 hours. When I confronted her she said that he never stays more than 48 hours. Anyone have any tips or dealt with this before? I feel like they are just gaming the lease to avoid having to add another renter. The rent includes utilities to having him at the property so much is increasing my cost.
