What property access is available to a landlord when the property is rented?
The landlord might need to visit the rented property from time to time to do their own mid term inspection, or complete their own maintenance. A tenant must allow access to the landlord but they have to give you 24 hours notice. The landlord will probably have a spare set of keys to the property for emergencies, but would never make access without prior notice. This has to be in written form and at least giving 24 hours notice.
