Landlord inspections: what to expect
They’re not as scary as you may think.
AI summary
Property inspections are a standard part of renting. In New Zealand, landlords must provide at least 48 hours' notice and can inspect no more than once every four weeks, between 8am and 7pm.
As a tenant, your responsibility under the Tenancies Act is to keep the property "reasonably clean and tidy". Landlords can take photos for documentation and may inspect all rooms. Use the inspection as an opportunity to flag any maintenance issues with your landlord.
