Full question:
We are leasing a house in Scottsdale. The owner wants to sell the house and we are letting real estate agents come and visit the house every once in a while. Now they want to do an open house.

Answer:
Under Arizona law (A.R.S. § 33-1343), tenants cannot unreasonably refuse a landlord's request to enter the property for specific purposes, including showing the unit to prospective buyers. As long as the landlord provides reasonable notice for the open house, you are generally required to allow it.
