When does a 'guest' become an unapproved tenant?

[Brian C.]

My tenants 'friend' arrived in his own motorhome and has been there a month. At what point does he become an unapproved tenant who may or may not be subletting from my tenant?

[Patricia Steiner]

Here's the standard in California:

"Standard rental and lease agreements often state: Guests may stay a maximum of 14 days in a six-month period – or 7 nights consecutively on the property. Any guest residing on the property for more than 14 days in a six-month period or spending more than 7 nights consecutively will be considered a tenant."  (Source:  www.fastevictionservice.com)

Time for that motorhome to motor on...
