# Property Inspection Rights

## Definition

The landlord has the right to visit the apartment for necessary purposes — repairs, inspections, or viewings for sale. But this right isn't unlimited.

The landlord must give advance notice within reasonable time and visits should occur at a time reasonable for the tenant. You can't be forced to let the landlord in without notice, except in emergencies like water leaks or fire.

## Key points

- Landlord has right of access for necessary purposes
- Advance notice required within reasonable time
- Visits should be at reasonable times
- Emergencies (leaks, fire) are exceptions
- You can refuse unreasonable visits

## Practical tip

Cooperate with reasonable landlord requests. But you have the right to refuse unjustified or unreasonably timed visits. Document if the landlord visits without notice.
