Re: Lease Agreement
If the friends are visiting your tenant you can't do anything about that. If your tenant has move out and your lease prohibits an unconsented to subtenant or assignee you have to bring an unlawful detainer action and not accept rent from the friends. You can sue the tenant for the unpaid rent.
