I'm not familiar with laws specific to Missouri, but the general answer is yes, there are many circumstances under which the landlord may enter the property. If the tenant is not paying rent, the landlord will start the eviction process and has the right to show the property to the next tenant.

The landlord is still bound by all the pre-existing restrictions after the tenant is late in payment, he/she is not free to come during the middle of the night or some other combative action.

It depends on your contract, but it is a very common courtesy that if you are renting form him he should provide. though if you are not home expect that the landlord will enter.


What are the laws concerning someone who rents a home and is the landlord of the home allowed to come in at any time?

Laws will be different from country to country, and possibly even from state to state in the US. I think virtually everywhere in the US, a landlord does not have the right to enter a rented (up-to-date) property at any time. Your rent doesn't give you full ownership of the property, but it does give you certain rights. The privacy of your home is something you should be able to expect when you rent and are current. The landlord does own the property, however, and has the right to inspect the property after giving you adequate notice (and possibly under other circumstances according to the law). You'll have to check local/state laws.

Can I withhold rent in Oklahoma because our landlord isn't doing anything about the abundance of ants in our home that we told him about the night we moved in?

If you can, find a solution and then talk to him about payment for the solution. Then, have him sign permission to charge the cost against your rent. Withholding rent rarely works in the tenant's favor. If the solution cannot be handled face-to-face, check on your local landlord/tenant laws.

Can your Philadelphia landlord force you to let in an exterminator monthly without ever warning you that you may wake up or step out of the shower and find one in your apartment?

Absolutely not. He must give you a warning that the extermination is scheduled for a certain day and then the exterminator must wait at your door until you let them in if you are at home. Your landlord cannot simply enter your home at will. You should review your lease for any language about repairs, exterminations, emergencies and the landlord's rights to enter your apartment for reasons related to them. You should also contact your local landlord-tenant agency for assistance.Absolutely not.

Can your landlord enter your apartment when you are not home enter your apartment when you are not home in England?

No he is not allowed to enter your home without your permission (given that you are paying rent and have a contract). Unless he suspects something to be wrong. Like a fire, water leak and stuff of that nature (that can damage the property). Even if the landlord is entering to fix something that you have reported to be broken he has to set a date with you or give you notice for the day of the repair.


Is the mortgagor allowed to enter your home in florida?

Are you certain that you do not mean the Mortgagee? The mortrgagee is the lender? The Mortgagor is the person who is BUYING the house.If, however, you are renting a home from someone who has a mortgage on the property, and the mortgagor is actually your landlord, yes, landlords DO have the right to enter their rental property to inspect it.If you actually mean to ask abaout a mortgagee's authority to enter your home; no, they do not have the rights that a landlord does. and would need either your permission, or a court document granting them access to the house.However, once the home has actually been foreclosed on, they do have the right to enter THEIR property.

If a property management company doesn't have a renter for a property who is responsible for the mortgage payment The property management company or the landlord?

That is correct. The landlord is responsible for the mortgage payment as the investment property is ultimately his (name on the deed). And I also agree with the advice given below. A competent and successful property manager will get vacancies filled. In a slow market, it's natural for a home to sit vacant for a few weeks, but the property manager should be doing everything in his/her power to get that home rented - including aggressive marketing. the landlord of course, but the landlord may need to start looking for a more reliable property management company.
