During the lease term in Washington
During tenancy, the rental home belongs to the tenant we respect the renter 's privacy. As managing agents Nesbitt Realty has the right to reasonable entry of the rental, but we will never abuse that right. If Nesbitt Realty has a good reason to go into a rental home in Washington, the tenant must allow us to enter the rental. Some valid reasons to come into rental property are to:
- Inspect the rental property,
- Make repairs or upgrades,
- Supply required services, or
- Show the rental to prospective or actual purchasers, mortgagees, workmen, or contractors.
Nesbitt Realty will always strive to give the renter notice and obtain renter consent before coming into the rental home. However, Nesbitt Realty can and will come into the rental home without renter consent in emergency situations. We will never abuse the right of entrance or use it to harass tenants in Washington. Nesbitt Realty will only go into at reasonable hours of the day, except in an emergency.
