Can a landlord showcase your place to possible renters while you still live there?
My renter is bringing like 2 or 3 people over every week and although she gives a day advance notice, it's like a pain in the butt after the first week or so. I still have two more weeks here but is this legal? This is the first place that I've ever encountered this.

It certainly is legal.

Your lucky my landlord did no such thing with us. We would get a knock on the door and no matter what time of day it was no notice or anything. One time he even had the nerve on the way out of the door to tell us we needed to vacuum and do the dishes because he wanted it to look good. While he was telling me this I was getting my hair colored and highlighted. I was wearing a robe and my child was sleeping. I felt violated. He never even gave us notice he was selling the house we were renting. Just one day started knocking and the people coming through the house looked like they had just escaped from a prison not to mention that they would come back over with all their kids and families and want to show them. I would tell them no. The land lord lived next to us they could go bug him but that I was busy and I wasn't having people walk through my house. I have a child with Autism so you can imagine how he responded to all these people. Thay also felt that it was ok to rummage through my closets and open my fridge. The landlord didn't tell them anything. That's just disrespectful. Good Luck. Just wanted to let you know that your not alone. This went on almost daily for a good 4 months until he couldn't sell it because he was asking to much and let us continue renting through a real estate agency he turned it over to.


not2shabby abby
check your lease...was there anything about that mentioned...are they looking to rent your apartment or another one in the building/ complex. Most likely there is nothing you can do about it but put up with it


I Drive a Mini
it is absolutley legal. you don't own it. and if you did and were selling, you would still have people going through your home...


BabeBabe
In the UK, yes, but they have to give you reasonable notice.

Yes, I've been in occupied apartments. It's weird for the person looking at your stuff too!

It's just ain't right dude no matter how illegal it really is.

Some people lack true marketing ability and etiquette, which is nothing new.

Not the first time you ever heard that either I suspect.

You might want to burn the place down by accident.

Simply put yes. When we rented this one several years ago, we saw it with the people living in it. And they left while we came in to see it.


gigibf
Yes! You should have read it in your contract. That is if you are not renewing your lease. Its the option of the landlord. Its fine if you leave before your rent end so that you dont need to be disturbed!


elantragod
Yes but you and the landlord would aggree on a time to do it.


miraclehand2020
land lord is taking advantage of you.withdraw your initial consent and send a cease and desist note to them.


roaddogs_squeeze
Yes it is. As long as she gives you notice that she intends to enter the property, she can go in any time she chooses. Some landlords go into rentals occassionally to see if the property is being taken care of, or if any rules are being broken.

However, you can tell your landlord that that particular time or day is not good for you and they are expected to reschedule or respect your rights of privacy.

landlords must give notice in AZ its 72 hrs you can ck the state law in your state by call the state agency that regulates real estate companies


brian s
Without your permission she can't - you pay the rent you own the place.

there are three angles to this.
1. Legal: In most of the legal systems, it is considered valid to have provision of arrangement to show the place where current tenant is living after current tenant has given the notice to leave the rental place. However, landlord must take permission of the current tenant and can only show areas that are not considered breach of privacy. For example, landlord can not show inside of your wardrobes to potential tenants without your permission.

2. Relationship: If you have good relationship with the landlord, you can always have common agreement on a mutually convenient arrangement (timing, days etc) of bringing pontial tenants

3. Fairness: Most of the time we forget about this aspect. If you keep yourself in the shoes of landlord, you will realize how important is for landlord to show the rental place to as many potential tenants to secure his/her business else it may be fairly possible that even after you have left the premises, place remains unrented for a while which will be loss of business for the landlord. Very often, people who are very particular about their privacy and convenience, pay one month rent extra and agree with landlord that he/she will bring on new tenants only after current tenant has vacated the place. So its your choice between money and convenience. At the end of the day, you have to be fair to the situation because some-point in time, you might be at receiving end...:-)

It depends upon the lease that you signed.

Yes it is legal for a landlord to enter your house anytime they want without you even knowing about it. They should be human enough to let you know before stopping by and they will usually call to let you know for obvious reasons, they want you to have the place nice and clean for them. But it is legal.

Want to get back at them?

Leave roach killer cans laying around
mouse traps with bait on them that are sprung
rat poisen containers (empty for safety)
and put them in places the next renting prospect can see.

They will be worried and not rent most likely. If your land lord says something, say maybe you should show the place when I am not here then....?
