Do I have a right to be irritated at my landlord???

You have a valid complaint and the fact that you are pregnant , you are even more annoyed. I would feel the same way pregnat or not due to the fact that I am paying money for a place that I don't want to share with anyone. However, since you signed a short lease, I wonder if you may kne that the landlord would be selling soon, or was this the only amt of time that landlord woyld allow?

Does it say in the lease that he can do that? That doesnt make sense, you signed a 6 mohth lease, unless there is a provision in there stating that he can do that I don't see how that is fair.

I dont think your landlord has the right to come and go as he pleases. You are paying him rent and for all purposes the house is yours for 6 months. Its more like he has sold his house to you for 6 months. If he needs to bring future tenants to come look at the place he should do that in the last month of your lease not from the very beginning. Then also he should call you up and ask a convenient time to come see the house. I think there are laws which state all this and you need to be very clear about this with him.

I'm SORRY! Find some way to get it fixed. Complain to someone if possible. Thats not right. Check your contract. After all thats not right to sign something and 2 months later change it! You could fight that easily. Plus you are pregnant and very much close to get birth. Come on man. That person he has no heart at all!

You have EVERY right to be pissed off. Did he tell you he was thinking of selling the house when you signed the lease? It's been less than two months!

Check your lease, I just signed one, and there's a clause somewhere in it that states what they can do, how much notice they have to give you, etc. It seems ridiculous that he's showing the house now if he can't sell it until Junish right? My parents are selling their house, they have nothing in it so they can show it. I think it would be kinda creepy to have people that you don't know walk around with all of your stuff there. Can you be in the home at the time? I've always lived in bad neighborhoods, we always made sure to keep our blinds shut so the neighbors don't know what we have to steal lol, so I'd have major issues with this!

He has no right showing a house while you are under contract unless your lease says he can. You have a right to say "No". So do it.

I am a Landlord. There is no way this man can bring people to the house you are renting just because he owns it. I don't know the specific laws of your country, so I can't give real advice. You must have a tenants board, whom you can contact.

I feel your pain. I know it's probably hard for you, but when you moved in, did he make it clear to you that there was a chance he would put the house on the market? My parents just went thru this. Their house burned down so they were renting a house for a while until their new one got built. The landlord started showing the house and my mom was aggravated, as well. I do understand, but unfortunately it is his right. At least, I think it is. Maybe you could just let your landlord know that a certain time here or there is not good for you. Could you ask him to ask you first and not just show up. I hope it all goes ok for you. Good luck!

We have a one year lease on our place and if your contract is like ours than your landlord has every right to show the place to other people. It stated this right in our lease agreement. It's invasive yes, but legally it's fine. You should reread your lease agreement and see if it says anything about that. At least he gave you SOME notice and didn't just show up with people. I can understand how frustrating this must be, especially being pregnant. Good luck!

Unfortunately I don't think there is anything you can do. I do feel sorry for you thought with the way you are feeling. Perhaps you could ask the landlord to show people round when you aren't they so you won't feel so invaded.

bless your heart. i feel for you. i know i was irritated real bad when i was pregnant. i dont see how he could come into your home without prior notice. call your local housing company they would know more. good luck and congrats on the soon to be new bundle

Damn straight, i would be very pissed off, obviously your landlord has got problems. I would talk to him and let him know how you are feeling expecially since youve not long ago signed a new lease as well as the fact that you are in the late stages of pregnancy. I would be wanting to know what has changed since you signed the lease also ask if he is looking for an investor or homeowner. At least that will give you some idea as to if you need to start looking for somewhere else to live. I hope you can get it sorted without to much stress. Best of luck

Looking at your side of the story and if I were in your place, I will be irritated too. You have an agreement and while that agreement is in effect the house is yours to keep for that period. It is not necessary for the land lord to just come in and out because he owns the place. What if you are not in the house, that does mean that he have to go inside without your permission? It is really irritating in y opinion since your privacy is disturbed by your landlord activity. It is also not advisable for you to take a new house immediately since you are pregnant. But if you can do it, maybe you have to to get away with that kind of land lord.

If you have seen some of my previous posts you'd understand that I too am having landlord troubles. I have the issue of them bringing potential renters in (we only get 1 day of notice) and it's a pain in the butt because not only do I have to make the place look decent, but they also expect that the dog to not be here. I'm not currently working so it's not hard to take the dog for a walk while they're here, but this raises the issue of having strangers walk through the house while I'm not around which is eerieee to me. Apparently when landlords give you 24 hours, they are allowed to come into the unit to show it but I definately don't agree with this law. I think they should have to wait till the current renter has moved out..

ok this is how it goes. so u know the fact, 1 i worked for the housing, so i know how the system works, but this is in the uk not the usa so things maybe diffrent for u guys. 2. ur landlord ans lest his ho,e for a short period of time to u. at this time ur land lord does not or shouldnt even view it to customer while ur paying full rent. 3 rd by me saying this u will need to check out ur fact on the rent book and any legal housing doucment u have signed. go though them carefully, see if he has stated that while ur renting he will be viewing his home to other people, if it doesnt state this infor ur landlord, and tel him u be seeking legal advice, with u paying full rent the house should be urs, and the only person who can visit freely for reguly checks is ur landlord, but not other member of the public should enter.

I think he should wait until at least 1 or 2 months b4 the lease is up...especially if ur 8 months pregnant!

I'm sorry that your landlord isn't very nice. It seems there's a lot of them these days. I do believe that your landlord is under an obligation to call you to make sure that the time is convenient. If it's not, you have every right to say no, and he has to abide by that. Visit a citizens advice bureau and know your rights. That way you won't be in any trouble and you'll know what you and your landlord are allowed to do and what you're not allowed to do. Good Luck!

He has no reason to begin to show it to buyers. You have a 6 month leagle contract saying you have the right to live there for the next 4/5 months. He can wait untill its closer ot the time of your lease being up to show it. I understand how your feeling though, at my last place my landlord said he was selling it, and started showing it. He even brought people in when we wernt there. Its really unnerving to know there are strange people coming into your house when you dont want them there!

This is my suggestion. First, pull out your lease contract or agreement. Does his contract specify the right to "show the house" even if a 30 day notice has not been given by either party. I am pretty sure it would be okay for him to do this if you have given him 30 day notice or he has given you 30 day notice; otherwise I believe it is a no no. This should be clarified if he is going to be doing it, and it should be at a agreeable and mutual time again if this is in the contract whcih I doubt. If not then call the Fair Housing in your area tell them the situation. Being pregnant is hard enough w/o some one else putting more stress on you. Geez you just moved in I don't think the quality of life and of cost of rent would be subsaintiated if you have to have frequent visits to potential buyers..You have a right to you and your families privacy regardless if he owns the house or not; you are renting/leasing so you have occupancy rights. Once again I would call Fair Housing or the Housing Authority in your area and get information from them. If it is not on the contract that he has the right show at his own time then it would only be professional to get with you and see what would be good for you. You signed a 6 month lease to live in this house; a 6 month lease to keep house clean and perfect because he is going to show it. Your life should not revolve around your landlords. I hope this gives you some ideas on how to resolve this. GOOD LUCK
