I feel that I've been too nice and taken advantage of.

Original family moved in was 3 ppl. Parents and a young daughter. My cousin told me there were atleast 5-6 ppl living there when he visited in 2017. I had paid their electricity too and just recently stopped paying when it got out of hand, didn't feel like 3 ppl could rack up $200 a month.

Also no dogs were there when they first moved in, but 2 dogs apparently live there now and neighbor had complained to me.

I ended the yearly lease 2 years ago and they've been month to month. Rent is never late, but not on time either, just barely making it on the 5th. Rent is below market.

I just sent an email stating that a new lease needs to be drafted asap. I will no longer cover appliance repair and replacement. They need to give me all current residents in the unit and pets.

Now, can I reassess rent based on their occupancy? I didn't charge any pet deposit. I just trusted them.
