I'll sometimes ask for something small when someone changes a contract just to set a precedent that we have a contract and it should be followed, but many times the other party (usually fostered by an inexperienced agent) freaks out like I'm the crazy one for expecting them to live up to the terms of the contract.

It specifically calls out renting for less than monthly more than 3 times a year.It would classified as "transient use" which is not allowed in residential"Residential uses means, for the purpose of these regulations, single-family, child foster home, community residential home, garage apartment, duplex, multifamily, town house, boarding and rooming house, domiciliary and retirement home, and nursing home, which are available for occupancy on no less than a monthly basis, or for less than a monthly basis three or fewer times in any consecutive 365-day period.

I am also a new agent in Maryland (Just affiliated with long and foster not too long ago).

Oh @George Foster THANK YOU!

Most recently, I was Vice President of Marketing for Long & Foster- but I really wanted to start my own shop.  

Good LuckLarry Foster
