In what circumstances may an entry be made into a residential premise by a landlord or an agent of the landlord under the Residential Tenancies Act without notice?

In the case where there is suspicion of illegal acts going on in the premise.
In the case where the tenant is behind on their rent and the landlord wants to confiscate property to recoup monies owed.
In the case of an emergency situation where access is required to prevent major damage and/or injury.
In the case where a Realty agent wants to show the unit to potential renters.

The correct answer is: In the case of an emergency situation where access is required to prevent major damage and/or injury.

The Residential Tenancies Act allows landlords or their agents to enter a residential premise without notice only in the case of an emergency situation. Such a situation may necessitate prompt access to the unit in order to prevent significant damage to the property or avoid potential injury to inhabitants. For example, a dangerous gas leak, a fire, or a critical maintenance issue could fall under this provision. This legislation safeguards the tenant's right to privacy while also ensuring the wellbeing of the property and its inhabitants. In situations excluding emergency, landlords are generally required to provide a written notice to the tenants before entering the premises. The other circumstances listed don't align with the parameters provided by the Residential Tenancies Act for acceptable, notice-free entry.
