Landlord Letter

When you rent a property from a landlord it becomes your home. They should only enter the property without you being present, if you have given permission for them to do so, or in a genuine emergency.

Your landlord or their representatives may be allowed reasonable access to carry out inspections or repairs, but must first get your permission. According to Section 11, from The Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, your landlord needs to give you at least 24 hour notice before they come around and visit for any reason.

Notice Requirements for Florida Landlords A landlord can simply give you a written notice to move, allowing you 15 days as required by Florida law and specifying the date on which your tenancy will end.

You should give your landlord access to the property to inspect it or carry out repairs. Your landlord has to give you at least 24 hours' notice and visit at a reasonable time of day, unless it's an emergency and they need immediate access.

Tenants can always give the landlord or agent permission to enter the property at any time for any reason.

Put cameras everywhere (Nest Cam is a good brand), make sure you put signs "Premises secured by video surveillance" and you will be good to go. While it won't prevent the landlord from entering, it will prevent the landlord from doing anything funky, and who knows, with time even stop.

How much notice must my landlord give? A landlord must give 24 hours' written notice before they can enter a property - assuming they are given permission by the tenant - and can only arrange to visit at a 'reasonable' time of the day; so ideally not late at night or early in the morning.

Let's be clear, other than in emergency it's illegal for a landlord or agent to enter a property without agreement from the tenant. The golden rule to abide by is always to provide your tenants with written notice at least 24 hours before any planned visits.
