         4.  If the tenant remains in possession without the landlord's
      consent after expiration of the term of the rental agreement or its

      in addition, may recover the actual damages sustained by the landlord
      and reasonable attorney's fees.  If the landlord consents to the
      tenant's continued occupancy, section 562A.9, subsection 4 applies.
