    This is not a generalized answer
    but is point-specific to Virginia
    Regulation. And the regulation
    IS:

    VRLTA Section 55-248.7

    Which states, to wit:

    Sign and keep a copy of the lease.

    You must be given a copy of the
    lease (rental agreement) within
    one month of the date you move
    in.

    Even if your landlord does not
    give you a copy of the lease, YOU
    ARE AGREEING TO THE TERMS
    OF THE LEASE BY OCCUPYING
    THE APARTMENT OR PAYING
    THE RENT.

    WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE A
    COPY, YOU ARE BOUND BY THE
    TERMS OF THE LEASE YOU
    SIGNED.

    No changes in the terms of a lease
    by a landlord or tenant will be valid
    unless the changes are allowed by the
    lease and the government and both
    parties consent in writing to the
    change.
