Can my landlord come in without asking in NSW?

No. They need a reason and notice: 7 days for inspections, 2 days for repairs.

Your clock

• 7 days, written, 4 times a year at most: Inspection notice
• 2 days: Repairs notice
• 7 days: Advert photos

The rule in NSW

• Not on Sundays, public holidays, or outside 8am to 8pm, in most cases.
• Buyers: 14 days' written notice first, then 2 visits a week at most, on 48 hours' notice.
• No notice for an emergency or urgent repairs.
• They need your written consent to publish photos showing your things.

Unlawful entry: NCAT within 3 months of finding out.
