Access to your home. 8.2.1 We require reasonable access to your home and outside areas to carry out repairs, periodic inspections or improvement work. We will give you at least 24 hours’ notice. You should ask all callers for official identification before you allow them access to your home. If in doubt contact our offices or the police. 8.2.2 In an emergency you must give us immediate access to the property. Notice is not required where any delay in obtaining access could result in personal injury to people or damage to the property or to other properties. 8.2.3 If no one is at the property when an emergency occurs, we will try and contact you by all means available to us, however if this is unsuccessful we reserve the right to force entry to the property to rectify the issue. We will repair any damage we cause when we enter your home and we will make the property secure against unauthorised entry. 8.2.4 There are situations where we as the landlord will require access to your home in order to fulfil our legal obligations. In these situations you are required to allow authorised Council employees, agents and contractors access to your home. If you do not allow access to your home we may take legal action against you and you will be responsible for the costs of this process. 8.2.5 We as the landlord have a responsibility to carry out safety checks and routine repairs before re-letting a property. Therefore if you are moving from your home you must let us have reasonable access to carry out a ‘pre-vacation’ inspection before you leave, to carry out minor repairs and to show prospective tenants around the property.
