I rent... Can I install a wall-mounted TV?

Moved into a new apartment this week, and I want to wall-mount my TV. Can I do this to my apartment, and just patch/paint the bolt holes when I move out?

    Ask your land lord. Then if you can, do it.

    Play it safe and check with the landlord. Some get a little P I S S Y when it comes to boring holes in "'THEIR"' walls.

    My brother rents out apartments and he suggests to tenants that they purchase a stand for their TVs. Of course, his is a historical building (plaster walls) so I understand his rule on this.

    I rent and i did and u right just patch the holes when u leave.Also if u think about it the holes r not huge.If they are a strict landlord they probably will just deduct a little off your deposit for repairs.

    ask your landlord-putting holes in walls can be a touchy subject

    Check your lease - you may need to ask permission technically, but I would just do it and fill up afterwards
