Hey everyone, my niece and sister are in a predicament and I'm not quite sure what the answer is:So, my niece just signed a lease for an apartment and she apparently initially never told the management company that she had two cats and apparently the property manager never asked her if she had pets.After a week or two I think she made it aware to the manager that she had two cats, so I think, the manager essentially said, "Ok" and sent her the pet agreement addendum which equates to $100 per month per pet extra in rent and a $450 non-refundable deposit. 

My agency / sales business is essentially comprised of a couple of home builders both of which are close friends.
