Perhaps, that issue would be decided by the wording of the rental or leasing contract. In most states landlords reserve the right to bar individuals from property, in some instances "just cause" is needed. Such reasoning would be determined by the court, but generally the law presumes the renter or leasee has the option to move or visit the person at some other location.

Hmmm...I don't know....who's property is it...the tenant or the Landlord?

Answer

Both yes & no! The specific answer in most all cases will be found in the Lease. Read yours.

Most normally, and likely what courts would consider the standard if your lease doesn't address it is something like: The landlord will be given access to the property during reasonable hours by providing adequate notice (reasonable and adequate can be a little vague, but a day before and daytime would seem to be about right). That's for just about any reason, even to check condition for possible repairs and adherence to lease terms).

There is normally an additional clause, not just held but required by most courts if not stated, that if an emergency or abandonment is believed to exist, the landlord and representatives may enter without any notice. So if there is a water problem or such (even somewhere else and they need access to your unit to handle it), they are able to walk in. Preservation of life, health and property (even their own rented property) will just about always trump your right to privacy.

No, at least not in Canada. According to the Tenant Protection Act, once the area has been rented the ongoings of that area can no longer be controled by the landlord.

No, a landlord cannot prevent you from having guests, per se. But he has the right to limit how long that guests or guests can stay overnight.

If you live in a rental house who pays the plumber bill - you or the landlord?

AnswerMost rental questions can be answered by talking with your landlord. I've been in both situations. As a renter, I want the landlord to take care of everything. As a landlord, I want my renter to take some responsibility.I think a clogged drain is up to the renter to get fixed. A leaky pipe is more a landlord duty. However, if you want something more concrete, I suggest you come to an agreement with your landlord. You'll take care of any repairs that cost less than $50 and the landlord will be responsible for the bigger jobs.Max

Damage to anything covered by the landlord's insurance, because the landlord owns the property not the renter. Such damage would be covered under homeowner's insurance, because the homeowner owns the property.
