Can I limit property visits since the landlord is selling?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have a clause in my contract indicating that: "Landlord may exercise his right to show the property to prospective buyers and potential new tenants - in case of non-renewal of this contract - with 24 hours notice to the tenant during the period of the tenancy contract."

My landlord decided to sell the apartment and sent me an eviction letter. He is arranging visits via a couple of real estate companies to show the apartment. However, the number of visits is more than I would like to have.

Can I limit the number of visits to, let's say, "once a month"?

Thanks!

Dear Client,

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will assist you in this matter.

Your tenancy contract allows the landlord to show the property to prospective buyers and tenants with 24 hours' notice.

While you can negotiate with the landlord to limit the number of visits, it's important to maintain open communication.

If negotiations fail and the visits become disruptive, consult with us for guidance on your rights under UAE tenancy laws.

For any further legal assistance, you can WhatsApp us. We have an extensive team of knowledgeable and experienced lawyers to provide the legal assistance you need.

We will be happy to help you.

Thanks & Regards,

ABDUL WAHIED

Dear Questioner,

Yes, you have the right.

To avoid conflicts, ask him to visit once every two weeks.
