Can a landlord charge additional for pets in NH?
Tuesday, September 29th, 2009I was told that in NH landlords are not allowed to charge anything additional for Pets. No additional security deposit or rent. I’ve been trying to find something official about this, but can’t find anything. Does anyone know about this and where I can get more info?
Please do not respond to this if you’re going to answer based on laws in other states. All states are different.
It seems that the law only applies to landlord who own 6 or more properties. If it a home, duplex or townhouse…the landlord can charge a pet deposit.
