My landlord is selling the building that we live in and he told us that we will receive a 24 hour notice when they may want to come look at the apartment.
We are still living there and will continue when the new owner takes over.
The landlord said that he gave the realtor our key and said if we are not home, they will come into the apartment..
This doesnt sound right.

Yes, and the landlord and realtor have that right. Nothing you can do about it. And to the poster whoo states that you can sue if they don't give you 24 hours notice, she is some kid who HAS NO IDEA what the heck she is babbling on about. You would NOT have grounds for a lawsuit even if the landlord did not give prior notice. You would probably never even know anyone was in your apartment anyway (if you were gone at the time). Some of these people talk off the tops of their empty heads!

NOOOO that is so wrong. Who told you this the realtor or the landlord. I am a realtor and unfortunitly there are unhonest realtors in the world and will tell you what you want to hear so the landlord is at fault. By law you are to receive a 24 hour notice. I would have a serious talk with your landlord.

I am a Realtor with Century 21. Legally they have a right to enter becuase the landlord owns the building and has given the realtor consent to enter. I never have been in agreement with this myself and I believe many realtors have the same discomfert. I am sure if you simply ask your landlord or the R.E. agent if they would mind waiting for you to be home that it would not be any trouble. Who knows, perhaps speaking with them will make you more comfertable with the idea. Most real estate agents desire to keep everything in a neutral and sellable order, if your upset selling it becomes harder. This makes it in their best interest to respect your wishes.
Hails,

The key to your question is the 24 hour notice. If it is spelled out in your lease that the landlord can enter your unit after providing you with 24 hours notice, then, if they give you the notice, there is nothing you can do about it. If this isn't spelled out in your lease, then the owners right to enter is debatable and may be determined by your state's laws. The 24 hour notice clause is pretty standard in lease agreements. The owner's agent can enter your unit as long as appropriate notice is provided.

Yes it does, they should call first before they come to give you a little notice. You have to realize that if the Landlord is serious about selling he has to be open to letting people view HIS property otherwise he'd be defeating the purpose of having it listed with a Realtor.

If you are given 24-hour notice of entry, the realtor can enter with a key.
The listing agent must leave his/her card or other document in the unit noting s/he has entered and shown the property.

Many times a rentor has more rights to the rental than the owner. Unless your lease you signed says something different they are really required to give you notice and you are to in most cases give approval for them to access your area or appartment...

it doesn't sound right but they can. i rented a house that was for sale and realtors came in whether we were home or not. BUT they should call you and let you know they're coming or they should leave a business card for you to let you know they stopped by.

Doesn't seem right...but I believe that YES, they can enter whether you are home or not because they OWN the property
