Q: If the owner is selling the home I am renting how often do I have to make the home available for viewings?
I am just wondering about the inconvenience to me during the selling process. How much of a notice must be given to me before having a showing? I work nights and sleep during the day. I hate the idea of having to adjust my schedule to have strangers walk through my home, looking in my cabinets and closets daily.
A: Florida law does not satisfactorily address this common problem because it would interfere with the owner's right to sell their property. If you have a valid written lease it might address this situation because most leases have clauses allowing the landlord to enter the premises at anything except late at night and very early in the mornings.
