Landlord Said the Snakes Gotta Go :(

What state do you live in?

It's their property, they can enter whenever they want because they OWN the building. Of course they can't go in and take things but they have the right to inspect a property to make sure their building is being properly taken care of.

Not true in California (and probably most other states). They have to give at LEAST 24 hours notice before entering here, and can only do so for routine inspections (i.e. annual fire detector inspection) or planned upgrades. They also cannot enter without the tenant present if they say no, which I always do because of my dog... he's legally in my apartment, I just don't trust him to allow a stranger into the home, nor do I trust them not to let him escape. So I have to check a box saying "yes, you can enter without my permission" or "no, please contact me to arrange a time when I will be home" etc.

They might own the building/house, but a legal tenant has rights too once they've signed a contract. If someone leased a car and paid their payments on time, could the lender just go over and drive or open it whenever they desired? Nope.
