Showing unit to perspective tenant
I have a question with regards to showing a unit to a perspective tenant after the current tenant (i.e house roommates) has given notice to move. I was at my rental unit making repairs to a kitchen floor (I had given 30-days notice of entry -- PLENTY of time). While I was repairing the floor, a perspective tenant showed up to view the rental. As I already had permission to enter the premises for repair, I did not see a problem in showing the house to the perspective tenant. The door to the bedroom was not locked and/or latched so the door was already open. I pushed the door open (did NOT walk into the room) to show the size of the room (and the color of the walls -- I will be painting). I was 'leaning' on the door jam talking with the 'new' tenant when the current tenant started ranting that I illegally entered their 'room'. As I had permission to be in the house, they had given notice (it's less than two weeks before they are required to move), and I didn't actually step into the room, did I violate any 'codes' or 'regulations' regarding this action? :confused:
I live in Washington State if this helps.
Thanks in advance for your information.
