Landlords may own the property, but while you are living there, they generally dont have the right to enter your home without permission. They cant violate your privacy for their convenience. In most locations, the landlord must provide advance notice before entering a property, except in an emergency.
In New Jersey, landlords must provide a one-day notice before entering the rental unit to make repairs. To avoid legal problems, include a clause in the lease or rental agreement that lets the tenant know your right of entry. You may also keep a record of all your requests for entry to the rental unit.
For example, if a landlords repeated illegal entries into your house caused you 75 hours of serious upset, and you value your time at $25 per hour, you would sue for $1,875. If you are a landlord being sued, but believe that your entry or conduct was legal, you should be able to document this.
