What is the name of your state? PA
I'm a new LL (Nov 05) and have problem tenants. A while back, I wanted to inspect the furnace and spoke with the tenants about having my father over there to look at the furnace. My father lives much closer than I. The tenant was given more than 24 hours notice as these arrangements were made days in advance. They agree to be there when he showed up. When he showed up, no one was there. He misplaced the key so he didn't actually enter but later on the tenants said that he can not legally enter the house.
Would it be illegal for him to enter if the tenant was not there, even if notice was given?
They were given more than 24 hrs notice.
Can LL or their representative legally enter the premises so long as 24 hours notice was given, regardless of whether the tenant was there.
Does it have to be in writing or is voice mail good enough?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
