Hi,
I signed my lease with property management company A, and I pay my monthly rent to A. However, it appears that the property I am living in will be managed by a different company (B) starting August this year. Company B has, since about 3 weeks ago, been serving me notices to enter, and has been entering my apartment about 5-6 times a week, which I find rather annoying.
My lease will not expire in another 5 months by the way.
I have not received or signed any documents on the change of "Landlordship" to company B for the purposes of my lease. I pay my rent to company A. And as I clarified with company A, I will continue to pay my rent to A for the remainder of my lease.
And when I emailed company A on whether company B has the authority to enter my apartment, A's response is that company B is helping them with unit showing, and apologized for not having formally notified me of this situation.
Question: Can I deny entry to company B on the ground that they, in the absence of any legal document that establishes them as my Landlord, do not have the authority to serve me notice to enter, and let alone the right to enter?
Thank you.
