Answer:

Unless there is a provision in the lease that allows Landlord to enter the apartment to show it to potential tenants, Tenant does not have to allow the apartment to be shown under the Right to Quiet Enjoyment which means that a tenant has a right to be left undisturbed as long as they pay their rent.

A tenancy at will does not have a definite expiration date. It continues until either the landlord or tenant decides to terminate it, usually with proper notice. This type of tenancy offers flexibility but can be less secure for tenants since it can be ended at any time.
