if its in the contract that he can't put up a flag than fine.

Most leases restrict what the tenant can display outside. For example, in the lease we have with our tenants, we have the clause:

quote:

---

36. UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA RULE The tenant agrees to not display flags, banners, pennants, signs, colors, logos, marks, badges, images, figures, symbols, emblem, foam fingers, or mottos of or indicating support of the University of Alabama football team in any manner visible to any person standing outside the Premises.

(for the record, our current tenants are not bama fans. Feel free to use the above clause, I submit it to the public domain, though you may want to check for typos)


Any large apartment complex I've ever lived in has already had extremely restrictive terms on what can be displayed outside the apartment (like nothing, really). They want the complex to look like they want it to look.
