What is the name of your state? AZ

My landlord is rude and pushy. They have told us we have to tell them whether or not we are going to renew the lease now and we still have 6 months left on the old lease. We have always let them in the house for repairs and such, but they want to come in to the home to show it, and told us we have to have all bedroom doors open. Who wants strangers going throught their bedroom? Please let me know if you anything about privacy issues between landlords and tenants in Arizona. Thank you for your time.

When can a landlord enter a tenant's residence?
If a landlord provides two days' advance notice of his or her intent to enter the resident at a reasonable time to make repairs, alterations, decorations, or improvements, tenants can't unreasonably refuse to allow landlords into their residences. In case of emergency, however, landlords can enter without consent and without notice. Landlords are prohibited from abusing this right or using it to harass the tenant. A.R.S. § 33-1343.
