Hey guys, I am currently renting a three bedroom apartment in St Lukes, Auckland and the owner wants to sell the place.
There currently have been 1-2 open homes every week and a few random private viewings placed in there as well over the last two or so months.
The auction for property took place last night with no bidders bidding at all so the property is going to continue to be on the market for the foreseeable future.
The law states that I must allow the real estate agent "reasonable" access to the property to show potential buyers the place.
My question is how often so you guys think is "reasonable access"? Personally I am getting fed up with all these viewings especially while I am paying good money (rent) every week for peace and quiet.
The owner has offered $20 per week discount, however I am now thinking that is not that much for the inconvenience that I am having to currently put up with.
My flatmate said that if there is one more viewing, he is going to move out - we are all getting stressed out.
The property could potentially be on the market for many more months (also viewings over Christmas won't be the best either) - you can see what I am getting at, right guys?
Question: How often do you think reasonable access is?
