Open Question: Am I being too intrusive by asking my property manager to inspect my rental property every six months?
I was talking to a co-worker and I told him that according to my contract, the property manager can inspect the interior for $75 if I make that request. I own a condo and it is located inside a building so there’s not much for the manager to look at inside. She told me that they will drive by and look at the exterior, but she will only see the balcony of my place.

I have clauses that state no pets or smoking inside the premises. I personally think that $75 would be a good investment to ensure that I have a peace of mind that my property is in good shape. My co-worker thinks that I am being too intrusive and that the tenant’s privacy is being compromised because they are paying rent and they need to have their privacy.

At first, I wanted to have the inspection every quarter, but I figured every six months would not be too excessive. I look at it as this is my property and I want to protect my investment. I paid a nice sum of money ($300,000) and I do not want the value to go down due to neglect. So should I have the property manager inspect every six months? No at all? How about even quarterly?
