What rights do you have when leasing property?
826727
If the "trespass" is the owner,owner's immediate family, it is OK. ,but I have always found good landlords notify their tenants. If it is anyone else, save your "face" and put up a NO TRESPASS sign,in a visible place. But as a tenant, it is always better to keep the peace. The trespasser may be a neighbour who has taken the "short-cut" through the property for years! Use your better judgement. In a "leased" property, you must READ the Terms and Conditions to know your legal rights. Didn't you do that before you signed? If you have no written lease, then your "shit-out-of-luck"!

Depends on the contract you signed. I'd suggest you read it again. My feeling is that the landlord is responsible for it. But I don't know for sure.

If you rent your home you will probably have a tenancy. There are several different kinds of tenancy, and your rights will depend on which kind you have. In this section you can find out which tenancy you have and what rights this gives you.\n\nyou can find out what kind of tenancy you have, read an overview of the rights and responsibilities shared by all tenants and landlords, and find out more about tenancy agreements and leases.\n\nTenancy checker\n\nIn order to know your rights as a tenant, you need to know what kind of tenancy agreement you have. There are several different types of tenancy, but our quick and easy tenancy checker can help you to work out which one you are likely to have. More >\n\nTenancy agreements\n\nA tenancy agreement is a contract between you and your landlord that sets out your rights to live in a rented property. This page explains what a tenancy agreement should contain and how you can ensure it's fair. \n\nNon-tenant occupiers\n\nNon-tenant occupier is the name given to someone who has an agreement to live in a property but does not have a legal tenancy. You can find out if you are a non-tenant occupier and what your rights are on this page. \n\nOverview of rights\n\nWhatever kind of tenancy you have, whether you rent property from the council, a housing association, a housing co-op or a private landlord, you and your landlord have certain rights and responsibilities. This page gives an overview of what these are. More \n\n\n\n 4 things you must do before renting\n\nIf you want to rent your house, here's what you need to do:\n\n    * Be flexible. If you need to rent your house, chances are others do, too. Your house may go unrented for a few weeks or even a few months. If you rent your house to a company, particularly for use by an overseas employee, it may require a "diplomatic clause" that allows it to break the lease with 60 days' notice. "Prepare for some down time," advises Hans Stahl. "A two-year lease doesn't necessarily mean two years."\n\n    * Talk to your accountant or tax advisor. Renting has tax implications for landlords. Rental income is taxable. Some states revoke the homestead exemption on your property taxes if a house is no longer owner-occupied. You can depreciate a rental property, which can offset your property-tax gain, but also be aware of depreciation recapture, in which depreciation allowances are taxed, upon sale, as capital gains. "That's one thing I wished I'd known about going in," said Robert Haskins, who rented his house in Maine for four years.\n\n      - Advertisement -\n    * Call your insurance agent. Your owner-occupied homeowners' policy likely won't cover your house as a rental. Stahl said to expect about a 50% increase in your annual premiums once you move out and renters move in. He also advises setting up a limited-liability corporation, or LLC, and signing a quit-claim deed to turn your house over to the LLC. This will protect your personal assets, should you be sued by a tenant or guest. An attorney can set this up.\n\n    * Know your market rate. Rules of thumb may no longer apply, depending on where you live. "In Detroit, for years, it used to be $1 of rent per square foot," said Stahl. "Now that's more like 80 cents." But in college towns, it could be far higher, even if you're not renting to students. Know your local occupancy rate and set your rents accordingly. This is a good place for a reality check, too; if your mortgage payment is already above what you could charge for rent, you're going into it backwards. It's probably time to lower your selling price and get out from under it

You have to check your original lease. Where I live I know in my lease it says the lease will be automatically renewed if we don't give notice within a specified time. I signed it, so I have to abide by it. Every lease/ landlord is different. If you live in a building or property owned by a management company rather than a private individual, your lease likely has this clause. If nothing is stated in your lease, then you are free to be.

You need to refer to the property code provided by whichever state in which your property is in, with regard to landlord and tenant rights.  For example, if you were in Texas, you would easily find this information by doing a search for "Texas Property Code", where the state in which you own the property would replace Texas in my example.

There are no laws.  Rental property is market driven, the only law is the law of supply and demand.  They can charge whatever the market will bear, and you can choose to rent it or not.

Yes, while at least you are suppose to.Just think of th ebasic defination of Real Estate-\nReal Estate is a piece of land, including the air above it and the ground below it, and any buildings or structures on it \nIts called Mineral Rights-A mineral right is an interest in minerals in land, with or without ownership of the land surface. The right can be either to actually take the minerals out of the ground or to receive payment for the minerals taken out.\n\nOwnership of mineral rights can be separate from ownership of land; thus a person who owns a mineral right may not be the landowner. Included in a mineral right is the right to go onto the land in order to remove the minerals. Mineral rights can be leased or sold. A landowner who leases mineral rights often receives a royalty, which is a percentage of the value of the minerals that are mined by the leaseholder.\n\n\nThe state, of course, will try to take it.

Check your lease terms. I am sure that your landlord and manager would understand. Don't forget to give a proper notice in advance.

Sounds like my landlady - maybe they are related? I don't think it is illegal to have visitors over unless you are subletting or making money out of their visit (conducting business with them on the premises) - that may be a breach of contract.\n\nWell you know, you should speak to your local council people (private housing sector) and they will tell you of your rights.\n\nAlternately, if you have leased through an estate agent, contact your agent and see what he has to say.\n\nHere are some web sites that may help you as well -\n\nhttp://www.thesite.org/homelawandmoney/home/tenancyrights/yourrightsasatenant\n \nhttp://www.argyll-bute.gov.uk/tenantshandbook/tenantsrights.htm\n\nhttp://www.arla.co.uk/info/tenants.htm\n\nhttp://www.landlordlaw.co.uk/page.ihtml?id=239&catparid=6&step=2&page=shop

In England, no.  You don't actually own the land, you have a freehold which is an entitlement to enjoy it free of rent.  You can build on the land subject to planning laws, making use of the ground under your land and the space above it appropriate to the building.  Apart from that, the air above and ground beneath are not part of your freehold.

Read your lease, and look for the part where it talks about the Landlord's duties, especially in regards to maintenance and safety.  \n\n\nFrom the Attorny General's Office, state of Kansas comes this document on landlord and Tennant Rights and Obligations:  You will need Adobe, its a .pdf file. \n\n\nhttp://www.accesskansas.org/ksag/Files/Brochures/tenant.pdf\n\nAlso, you can call the State's Human Services Department, located in  in Wichita, 316-268-4688 or 316-337-6270.  \n\nHere is another link that may help you:\n\nhttp://www.hud.gov/local/ks/renting/tenantrights.cfm\n\nCheck this out:\n\nhttp://www.hcci-ks.org/TLL/THB/table_of_contents.htm\n\nspecifically, \n\nhttp://www.hcci-ks.org/TLL/THB/tntlnlrd.htm\n\nthere should be enough sources, numbers and links here to official local governmental agencies to help you.

It certainly sounds like they are taking advantage of you and maybe others in the area. Find out if other property owners are disturbed by this situation. There is always strength in numbers.  \nMy question would be, do you have the full rights to your property? Or have you conceded some rights in the contract you signed to own the property. You must have somewhere in the local government the files on each property in your area. Find out where this office is located and visit them by phone or in person and find out what your title says about your rights.\nGood Luck!

technically, landlords have the right to come in to your home/room whenever they please.  I am not sure what you can do.

Sometimes there is different date written on the lease that says when you specifically took ownership but usually its when signed. Check the lease or ask. There should be a specific date.

Actually, there are laws pertaining to this. I have no idea what it's called but look for "property rights" maybe "access" "new property lines"  in Google. It has something to do with after many years, the rights can be "grandfathered" or something like that. You should see a real estate attorney.
