Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Virginia
access to apartment
I was recently accidently locked out of an apartment in Richmond Virginia during the weekend for which I am on the lease but do not actually live there. My daughters who are students live at the apartment. I was told that there was no way to get into the apartment prior to Monday because Maintenance was closed during the weekend. I had assumed that all apartment buildings/companies have lock out service. Is it legal for management of a building to not have 24 hour access to an apartment, for instance for emergencies?

Re: access to apartment
Why not have your daughters further check into this issue with the management of their complex and, if necessary, Richmond housing authorities?
I don't have a clue from here.
