New York has no statewide statute setting a fixed advance-notice period for landlord entry. Instead, a tenant's right to quiet enjoyment requires reasonable notice at a reasonable time, except in emergencies. New York City and some localities impose specific entry rules by ordinance.
There is no statutory requirement in New York State fixing a numerical notice period for landlord entry. The right of access flows from the tenant's covenant of quiet enjoyment and from lease terms: a landlord may enter with reasonable prior notice, at a reasonable time, and with consent, to make repairs or provide agreed services. The New York Attorney General's tenant guidance treats 24 hours' notice as reasonable for inspections and longer for repairs. In an emergency such as a fire or water leak, the landlord may enter without notice or consent. New York City supplements this through the Housing Maintenance Code, which spells out access and notification requirements.
No specific statutory penalty. Improper entry can support a tenant claim for breach of quiet enjoyment or harassment; NYC imposes its own penalties under the Housing Maintenance Code.
