I have rented a house to a tenant and I’m wondering how often I can enter the property to do a maintenance inspection? I have been inspecting the property on a monthly basis but the tenant is now complaining that it’s too frequent. What does the law say about this?
The law does not set out how often landlords can carry out maintenance inspections, however the landlord should make a reasonable effort to limit the frequency of entries for the purpose of carrying out an inspection of the rental unit. A tenant could have grounds to claim that the landlord is interfering with their reasonable enjoyment of the premises by entering the unit too frequently to inspect.
