A landlord has no legal ground to stand on in regards to having animals on the property. They can state 'no pets' in the ad but that is just a preference as to whom they want to rent the house. As stated in the previously posted article unless the pet is a nuisance or damages the property and the owner can prove it to the tribunal then there is nothing they can do about it.
I think you would be hard pressed to find any owner that would go through the time, effort and cost to evict you having a snake or ten on the property.
In saying this I always let my landlords know about my dog, turtles, fish, chickens, rooster, and snakes when I was signing the lease and none ever had a problem. Luckily I own now and don't have to deal with them anymore. Real estate agents are lower than used car salesmen and property managers are even worse. Don't believe a word they tell you.
