Landlord Right of Entry

A landlord cannot enter a rental unit without the tenant's permission, except in certain situations. These situations include:

  • if the tenant has given permission,

  • if the landlord has given written notice at least 24 hours in advance for a reasonable purpose,

  • if there is an emergency, or if the tenant appears to have abandoned the unit.

  • If the landlord wants to show the unit to prospective tenants or buyers,

    • they must give notice and only enter during certain hours.

They must also obtain the tenant's consent or give notice in advance.

The landlord cannot enter on a Sunday or a day of religious worship for the tenant.
