i suggest that you go to the manager of the property and speak to them first. if nothing is done, find out who is over the property and speak with them. make sure to document everything. if it continues it may be necessary to either get a lawyer or move. |

It mostly depends on what state you live in. Typically there is a state run group of legal "assistants" that can help you if it continues to be a problem. I ran into this same situation not many years ago- in AZ. I printed out the Landlord & Tenant Act and served it to my landlord with the parts applying to them highlighted. Be sure to send it certified. Make sure they know the law before taking it any farther. |

One , your landlord has to give you 48 hours notice, if you have a problem with then coming in to your property, what have you done to piss him off so much. I think you might be fooked. |

In the USA each state is different do a quick search under your state and it will come up with how much notice is required for non-emergency usually it will say 24, others say reasonable which case law usually says's reasonable = 24
what to stop next time it happens, two things if home explain not a good time personal reason but happy to reschedule if not home inform the landlord this practice is unacceptable
recourse|: if home you can refuse entry no police is going to force the ll in side, other is if not home without proper notice you can try and file a trespassing charge, cops sometimes help sometimes not, but that would surely end your relationship with your landlord |

you can refuse entry.Also contact citizens advice. bear in mind tho that your landlord may not be happy and might refuse to renew your tenancy if things become difficult |

Write a polite letter to him, reminding him that he should be giving you 24 hours notice.
If he doesn't respond to this, seek advice from a solicitor.
The CAB may be able to offer advice.
Be careful though. I challenged this issue and ended up being given notice (they used legal means too).
Good luck |

Unfortunately, you will ahve to prove that the notice is not given. This will not be easy. Local ordinances may prevail over your agreement and, if you do decide to challenge the landlord's breaking of a rental agreement, you will end up looking for a new place to live. You will not be held to your lease and should get your deposit back, but without an agreement, you will end up moving. |

In general, if you have a local code enforcement office, they may be able to help you.
You must note, however, that in some cases, where the repair is a necessity, and can be considered an "emergency" in any way, the usual 24 hour notice is not applicable.
In other cases, you might wish to simply deny them entrance, if you are home, and make them comply, and if they insist, they will have to call the police, who will decide if their point is valid, or yours. You should realize, however, that this places you in the position of a "hostile tenant", and you should not expect even the slightest leniency on the part of your landlord for any future transgressions (like rent checks not getting to him on the day they are due, even though the error might be that of the postal service).
Sometimes it is best to just allow them the necessary access when they request it, and live with the lack of privacy. Most landlords realize that when they come unexpectedly like this, your house won't be "spotless" or that you may have objectionable items lying about. An ethical landlord will always turn a blind eye.
Namaste,
--Tom |

I think if it's essential work that can't wait for 24 hours - gas leak, roof tiles blown off in the gales etc they are allowed to waiver the 24 hours.
If not, then point this clause out to the agent/landlord and go from there, if they still insist and it's not essential work, then he is in breach of the tenancy agreement. Go to the citizens advice. |
