can i ask to get something written in a lease?

hey! sorry for any formatting, I’m on mobile but i have a question about renting. the city that i live in has a roach and bed bug problem. I live in Canada, i didn’t even know we had roaches until i saw one in my apartment. the second building i lived in i asked, “have you ever had roaches?”, they said no and turns out they had been fighting a roach problem months before i moved in. I am moving again and called a place and asked if they ever had roaches or bed bugs, they said no, i brought my sister with me to view it and turns out that’s where she lived for ~ less than one day before they found bed bugs in the unit. anyways, my question is can i ask my landlord to write in a lease “no we have never had any roaches or bed bugs in this building?” i’m so tired of getting scammed by companies and i’m so tired of dealing with pests. Backing off of that question, is that a good idea? could it potentially screw me if they actually did have bugs. could they blame it on me? sorry if this isn’t the right place to post, if there are better subreddits let me know! thank you!

tl;dr - can i ask my landlord to add “we’ve never had or treated for any type of pest”, and if i can, is it a bad idea?

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
