Hi all, We will be moving in June. Our landlord has not been very flexible or accommodating. First of all, they asked if they can just have potential tenants contact us directly via WhatsApp for viewings. When we said that wasn’t acceptable, we provided two days per week we could be available for viewings. Instead, she posted these dates publicly on the advertisement. This is completely unacceptable as anyone who is just curious can show up if they want to. We live in a rather well known area and building and I’m sure that will happen. We have pets and are very private people and a public viewing is a nightmare for us. I have moved a few times in Switzerland and I’ve just always contacted the landlord and arranged a viewing. I understand that some may prefer to hold a public viewing, but we should be able to have a say how we allow strangers into our home correct? I know by law there has to be 48 hours in advance notice to us and that we have to be reasonable, but giving 2 two hour time slots per week is rather generous. I have written to them that this is unacceptable, legally can I refuse? Thanks submitted by /u/SilentAlTheseYears
