Yikes, even if agreed upon having to let someone in for inspections every 6 months sounds tiring.

batmangrundies@lemmy.world 2 years agoReal estate’s do regular inspections, every six months (it used to be 3) These are usually handled by the most junior agents.
If you’re not home they can let themselves in.

Pretty sure they can only let themselves in if you say they can at the start of the tenancy. When we rented we said no and they could not come in for inspections unless we let them in

I am Australian.
I’m glad to see the responses haha. I wish more Aussies could see how shocking it is, how far we’ve let tenants rights fall.

Most states in the US have similar laws. Typically requires 24 hour notice, can be delayed by the tenant’s request, and must be during business hours. (With exceptions for emergencies such as a fire or water leak.)
