Landlords in France Cannot Always Ban Pets: Legal Expert Explains France - A recent TikTok video by legal expert Inesetledroit has gone viral, clarifying the rights of renters regarding pets. The video, which has garnered over 2 million views, explains that clauses in rental agreements prohibiting pets are often deemed unenforceable due to being considered abusive under Article 4 of the 1989 law. Inesetledroit uses a role-play scenario to demonstrate the legal points. She portrays a landlord who attempts to evict a tenant for having a dog, despite the pet ban being in the lease. The video then explains that the landlord's actions are illegal. "Even if it's specified in your lease, it's a clause that will have no effect because it's considered abusive," Inesetledroit explains in the video. The video's success highlights the widespread interest in tenant rights and the importance of clear legal guidance. The video emphasizes that while tenants can keep pets, landlords can deduct from the security deposit for any damages caused by the pet. This clarification provides valuable information for both renters and landlords in France.
