From TVs to wallpapers: What tenants can legally alter in a rented home
Moving into a new rental? Personalising your space has legal limits. The Transfer of Property Act, 1882, allows tenants to make temporary, reversible changes such as installing appliances or hanging decor. However, permanent alterations or significant modifications require landlord consent. Always document any agreed-upon changes in writing to avoid disputes.
