If you refuse access, the landlord/agent can apply to the Tribunal for an order that authorises them or any other person to enter the premises.

One pervasive fiction is that tenants can't be turned out of the rental during cold weather. Is this true? Mostly, no. However, there are actions that a landlord may not take during the eviction process.

7 days is required for almost all evictions. 30 days is required for month-to-month leases. The notice must state the specific reason for eviction, and can be delivered in person, or left on their door. When the notice is up, issue a writ of summons.

Every tenant has a right to privacy, but that right must be balanced against the landlord's right to maintain their property.While tenants cannot unreasonably deny access to a landlord, landlords must also follow all of the state and local rules regarding access to tenants' apartments.

Can the tenant refuse the landlord access for viewings?If the tenant doesn't want to allow access, whether it be for viewings, inspections or general maintenance, that's their statutory right. The tenant has the right to possession and to the lawful use and enjoyment of the premises.

A landlord can legally evict a tenant only by sending a written notice to the tenant. This written notice must be in the form of a "written notice to quit or leave" which is a legal document. Eviction for not paying rent, damages to the property or danger to the health or safety of others require seven days' notice.

Although the landlord is legally responsible for ensuring that you as a tenant have enough bins to dispose of household waste properly and are informed about where to dispose of your waste, you as a tenant have a responsibility to make every effort to dispose of your own household waste.

It is against the law RSA 540-A for a landlord to:Enter your residence without permission, except to make emergency repairs. (You should not refuse your landlord's reasonable request to enter with enough notice); Take any other action to force you out of your home without going through the eviction process.

There is no New Hampshire statute limiting how much a landlord can raise the rent. If your landlord tries to raise your rent by an unreasonable amount, there is a legal argument that such an increase is not enforceable by a court.
