    GA landlord showing rental 90 days prior to expiration of lease
    1. Is it reasonable for our GA landlord to show our house 90 days before our lease expires? We have not even told him that we will be moving. The lease says he can show the place, but doesn't say when. I feel that 90 days is too soon, and it is a great inconvenience for him to show up at our door whenever he feels like it, to ask to show it.

    My roommate and I are students, we work 2 jobs, and sleep during whatever part of the day we can sneak home between classes, research, etc. We have no life at all, and don't need this extra disruption of our day, or to have to worry about locking up our possessions from all the 3rd world lookie-loos he will be bringing through while we are gone. He likes renting to them, because they don't know their rights, and this place is nothing but problems.

    2. Is it reasonable to insist that he bring lookers on the weekend when we don't have to be in class, and are less likely to be sleeping?

    3. Can he bring them in without our agreement on the reasonable time?

    Unless you have agreed to renew he can show it 90 days ahead, many renters wish to plan ahead. But read your lease, he has to give you prior notice normally, it is normally 24 hour notice, he just has to tell you when he will be there, you can not require him to do it on weekend

    As Chuck said this should be spelled out in your lease. He can't just show up, but has to give you reasonable notice.
