The Residential Tenancies Act 1997 has established some circumstances wherein landlord
might enter rental premises. It is considered as an offence for the landlord to enter despite the
fact which is according to the Act, until the time they have a particular reason for that.
According to the act, a landlord might enter a premise at any time as per the agreement
provided by the tenant as long as the entry occurs in 7 days of acquiring the consent of the
tenant. A landlord must provide a notice of 24 hours to the tenant, give in writing notice
stating the excuse for entry, provide the notice through the mail or personally.

premises more than one time or quarterly basis. In any case, the tenant is given a prior notice
generally in advance of 24 or 48 hours before the landlord carries out the inspection.
The notice of entry shall be in a written form and must be signed and agreed by the agent as
well as the landlord. It must be delivered to the tenant for at least 24 hours prior to the time of
entry. Further, the notice should convey the reason meant for entry as well as stating the

keys.
PROJECT 2
a) Completion of the key register
b) Procedure for maintaining and accessing key register
The format in which key register is kept
Generally, record of the key registered is maintained by two ways. First one is, a number
would be assigned to every key which is noted by the agent at the starting page of the
register. After this, the register is bifurcated alphabetically A-Z where the proper address is

written down by the agent and Key number will be acknowledged by the left-hand column of
the page.
Responsibility for maintaining the register and issuing the keys
For protecting and obtaining the key register, property agent should be appointed by the
owner. The agent will maintain control keys for vacated as well as tenanted properties on
behalf of the licensee. For following the rules and regulation of professional indemnity
standards all keys of rental properties must be recorded, labelled and coded where the
reference of the address does not attach and assessing of the keys must be restricted from the
public, therefore, it should be kept far from the public.
Procedure for obtaining, using and returning the keys
The key number of each key is listed only in the system of the property manager, therefore
only by assessing the software, the key number can be obtained, and key for the property can
be traced. By using the unique code of the user, the key can be reserved on behalf of the trade
man. Keys should be returned by 5pm on the due date but if it is not returned by 7am of next
day morning then an automatically generated message and email is delivered to user to
remind them that is keys are overdue, and it is required to return, till the time user returns the
keys this reminder is forwarded on daily basis.
Procedure if the key is not returned
If the key is misplaced on the part of tenant’s mistake, then it is the obligation of the tenant to
pay the cost of locks which are required to be changed and the new key will be given to both
tenant and property manager. Moreover, if the keys are stolen, and this is confirmed by police
report number, then it may be covered under the insurance policy taken by the owner.
Even if the management keys are misplaced then also for obtaining the new keys, a barrel of
the locks should be changed, but before changing this and bearing the cost of the lock, the
property manager must refer the key register for getting the information regarding the person
whose keys are lost. For proper maintenance of the keys, the audit must be conducted on a
weekly basis by assessing the key register to get to know whether all the keys are accounted.
If any key of the property is not managed properly, then it must be returned to the owner or
new property manager.
Security for maintenance of key and register
For the security of keys and register of vacant property, prospective tenants are not allowed to
access the key by using office keys alone. This will lead to maltreatment of the entitlement to

a Letting Fee and leaves the Licensee open to the enormous risk of a Professional Indemnity
Claim.
Rented property- if the property is rented then access of property would be more. This may
be because of the assessment of the property by the staff, for repairing and maintenance by
the traders, and if the keys are not found then, the tenant will also access the property for
finding the keys. In key register, many information like date, time, trade person, property, a
sign of the trade person, return date with sign must be entered. Along with this if the keys are
removed by staff or keys are given to trader then this information should also be noted in the
register.
