I agreed a date next month with my tenant to come up and inspect my flat (involves as 400 mile round trip for me).
My tenant has now emailed me that as he has visitors over the weekend that I want to come over, he cant guarantee that he will be indoors and but he is happy for me to let myself in and inpsect the property if he is not in.
I dont have a problem with this in principle but am wary if there are there any pitfalls with this arrangement particularly if I am exposing myself to any liability.
Also will the email I have from the tenant be sufficient to enter the property on the agreed date or should I obtain something more official?
