There have been recent cases in the news where Landlords have entered property without their Tenant's permission...
"It's my property, I can just enter whenever I want right?" Nope, there's much more to it than that...
Our guide on 'How to Gain Access to your Property' 📩
➡ You must give your Tenant at least 24 hours’ notice in writing ✍
➡ Letter, email, What'sApp or SMS 📧📲
➡ Does my Tenant have right to refuse access? Yes ✋
➡ "Yes but it's MY property!" By agreeing to rent, you effectively hand the right to live in and use the property to your Tenant ✊
➡ Entering without your Tenant's permission is classed as trespass 👩⚖️
➡ Your Tenant could claim damages 💰
🙋♀️ Under what circumstances do I have a right to enter?
➡ You have a right to perform repairs in emergencies such as gas leaks, fire or flooding 🚨
➡ If it's not an emergency, you must offer alternative times, explain importance of visit, mention liability of costs and that you will no longer be responsible for injury or further damage 🛠
➡ No joy, consider a court order ⚖
