landlords can do rental inspections between 2 to 3 times per year and anymore than 3 times per year of rental inspections becomes excessive.
I've heard of some landlords doing monthly inspections of the apartment or rental home which is excessive and could get the landlord into trouble.
Most landlords will only do rental inspections once or twice per year to check and make sure the apartment or home has no damage and that you're keeping the place clean and tidy.
When I was renting an apartment the landlord inspection only took between 20 minutes to 30 minutes at most.
The landlord should and has to give you between 24 hours to 48 hours of notice prior to the inspection.
Before the inspection make sure you clean the floors, vacuum, clean the shower, clean dust and do your dishes etc.
Make sure you have not done any damage to the apartment or rental house and everything will go smooth with the landlord inspection.
The landlord just wants to make sure you're keeping the place clean and tidy and have not done any damage to the apartment or home.
They also want to make sure everything is in good working condition and in case they need to fix something.
