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