Do tenants have to let me show the house to buyers?
Tenants generally must allow reasonable access for showings once a lease or written notice spells out that requirement, but a landlord cannot show up unannounced without proper notice under South Carolina landlord-tenant law. Most leases include an access clause for exactly this situation, and where one does not exist, the landlord and tenant need to agree on reasonable notice before listing. Brian Beatty helps landlords set a showing schedule that respects tenant rights while still getting the home in front of buyers.
