I'd always say rent straight from a landlord rather than an agency but both will have roughly the same agreement,
You can change the locks but are required to supply them with a spare key in case u ever fuck off and don't leave them the keys.
You will normally get a 6 monthly inspection just to check for damage and shit, I've normally stashed my grow in the loft during inspections as they never check there.
They need to give u a minimum of 24hrs notice but usually 48hrs before they can turn up at the property.

An agency will stick to these rules strictly a landlord may be more flexible and not want to inspect the place as often especially if u can get a property where the landlord doesn't stay locally.

Yes that's right, it's 24 hours. My mum had a letting agency and once rented out to Vietnamese growers by accident! First we heard was from the police. The irish landlord wasn't bothered, he knew the rent was going to get paid and was just a bit concerned about the state of the house.

Over here the landlords can't enter at all. Ours are trying to sell a property we are living in and we told them that they aren't coming in to take pics. They can't make any viewings either and will have to give us 3 months notice to get in!!!

Had another property for 4 yrs now and my landlord has never been in plus he really likes me.

I've never changed the locks btw. They know I have a dog and they wouldn't dare regardless.

yeah wf private rentals I alsways use an agent then theres a fukin big contract which states that they have to give 24 hrs notice for an unscheduled visit and a months notice of an inspection, I got an email last year from the agent if it was ok next week for the owner to check an outside wall, I was there the whole time and didn't even go and say hello, fuk that, so its tight with agents man, I did one private rental and the owner didn't bother me for 18 months but it wasn't in writing so he could have turned up to check the boiler any day
