I don't think they are particularly unreasonable for a careful landlord, but I think the quality of tenants in the area might not be so great to begin with and including these details upfront makes me come across as a tough landlord:  Application: Background check ($25) Past landlord, employer, and personal referencesLease Points: Initial lease term is 8 monthsMonthly rent of $865 due on the 1st of each monthRefundable Security Deposit of $865Pet Fee (if applicable) of $200 upfront and additional $25 per monthOptional FrontPoint security system for $100 upfront and additional $50 per monthTenant pays for water, gas, and electricityRefrigerator and range oven includedWasher, dryer, dishwasher, and microwave not includedNo smokingAbsolutely no illicit drugs or other illegal activityTenant responsible for damages beyond ordinary wear and tearTenant required to purchase renter’s insurance before move-inNo assigning or subletting without landlord’s permission* The above list is intended only for purposes of convenience and is in no way incorporated into or comprehensive of the Lease Agreement, nor is it binding.
