Your landlord also can't use the right of entry to inspect your belongings. You have the right to refuse entry after receiving a 24-hour notice. You may refuse entry by specifically alerting the landlord of your decision, or you may attach a written notice of refusal to the front of your apartment in a secure manner.
You are paying rent to the landlord for exclusive use as the property as your home and as such you have the right to decide who enters it and when. If a landlord enters your home without permission they are, technically, trespassing, unless they have a court order to allow them otherwise.
Your landlord or their representatives may be allowed reasonable access to carry out inspections or repairs, but must first get your permission.
