Can residents request modifications to their apartment interiors (e.g., accessibility adaptations)?

Yes, residents can request modifications to their apartment interiors, including accessibility adaptations. However, the ability to make such modifications may vary depending on the landlord or property management company and the specific lease agreement. It is recommended for residents to review their lease agreement or reach out to the landlord or property management company to inquire about the process and permission for making modifications. In cases where the resident has a disability covered by the Fair Housing Act, the landlord may be required to make reasonable accommodations or allow reasonable modifications to accommodate the disability.
