Landlord entry & access

A tenant may not unreasonably withhold consent to entry for inspections, repairs, services, or showings. Except in an emergency or where it’s impractical, the landlord must give notice of intent to enter and may enter only at reasonable times (§55.1-1229(A)).

For routine maintenance the tenant didn’t request, the landlord must give at least 72 hours’ notice, the work must be done within 14 days, and the notice must state the last possible date. No notice is required for maintenance the tenant asked for (§55.1-1229(A)(4)). Entry that is unlawful or harassing lets the tenant seek an injunction, terminate, and recover damages and fees (§55.1-1210).

Required disclosures in Virginia

  • Statement of Tenant Rights — The landlord must provide the DHCD Statement of Tenant Rights and Responsibilities with the lease and have the tenant sign the acknowledgment form (§55.1-1204(B)). Until it’s provided, the landlord can’t file or maintain an eviction for a lease violation (§55.1-1204(H)).
  • Copy of the lease — A copy of the signed lease and the statement must reach the tenant within 10 business days (§55.1-1204(H)).
  • Owner & manager — The name and address of the property manager and of an owner or authorized agent, at or before the start of the tenancy (§55.1-1216).
  • Military air zones — In a locality with a military air installation, whether the property is in a noise zone or accident potential zone on the official zoning map — before the lease is signed (§55.1-1217).
  • Defective drywall & meth labs — Known unremediated defective drywall, or prior methamphetamine manufacture not cleaned to state standards (§§55.1-1218, 55.1-1219).
  • Mold — Whether there is visible mold, as part of the move-in report (§55.1-1215).
  • Renter’s insurance notice — If the lease doesn’t require renter’s insurance, a written notice that the landlord’s insurance doesn’t cover the tenant’s belongings and that renter’s policies don’t cover floods (§55.1-1206).
