TENANT'S OBLIGATION TO SHOW THE HOUSE

The tenant's obligation to show the house is an important issue in the relationship between the owner of the rented real estate and the tenant. This obligation is usually shaped by local law and the rules and conditions specified in the lease agreement. When we examine the tenant's obligation to show the house in detail, we attach importance to the following issues.

Lease Agreement and Local Law: The tenant's obligation to show the house is primarily determined by the conditions specified in the rental agreement and local laws. The lease agreement is the document that regulates the rights and responsibilities between the landlord and the tenant. Details regarding the tenant's obligation to show the house may be included in this contract.

  1. Condition of the house: The tenant's obligation to show the property generally depends on the physical condition of the home at the time the tenant moves in. When the tenant rents the house, he is generally obliged to return the house in the same condition. Therefore, the landlord may have the right to show the house to potential tenants.
  • Exceptions: In some countries and regions, the tenant's obligation to show the property may be limited because the tenant's privacy rights must be respected. The tenant's ability to show the house without their consent may be limited by law or contract terms.
  • Notification Period: Home showings are usually subject to a notice period. This period is intended to respect the tenant's moving plans, daily routine, and privacy rights. For example, the landlord may have to give the tenant a certain amount of notice.
  • Reasonable Times: Home showings must be with the tenant's consent and generally occur at reasonable hours. It is especially preferred during times when the tenant will not be disturbed, such as outside business hours or on weekends.
  • Partnership: The tenant's obligation to show the property requires cooperation between the landlord and the tenant. Both parties must be understanding, communicate, and determine appropriate times for home showings.
  • Cleanliness and Order of the House: Regarding the tenant's obligation to show the house, the tenant is expected to keep the house ready for showing. The cleanliness and order of the house ensures that potential tenants receive a positive impression.
  • Privacy Rights: The tenant's obligation to show the property must be enforced while respecting the tenant's privacy rights. The tenant's personal belongings should not be touched and their privacy should be protected.

            As a result, the tenant's obligation to show the house is shaped based on the rental agreement, local law and fair cooperation principles. The tenant and the landlord must fulfill this obligation with understanding and respect.
