Answer 1

If you pay your rent he can't just walk in.he needs to at least give you 24 hour advance notice.even though it is his property you are the one paying to rent it.Even if you say no he can come in but ONLY if he has given you written notice.Surprise "pop in's" are illegal where I live,and I'm pretty sure most states abide by the 24 hr thing.If you are still concerned google your state rental policies(it is best to see if your town court has a website).I hope you can sue this jerk face for invasion of your privacy.

No your landlord can't enter your apartment without your consent for any reason. You paid the rent for it so you have the right to it.

Answer 7

The rights of landlords vary from state to state. Some states are landlord friendly; some are tenant friendly.

What is legal in Main (for example) may or may not be legal in Nevada (for example).

I see a lot of answers come from people who consider such an action an "invasion or privacy" or against some other principle or valid reason for concern.

Unless you have studied real estate specifically, you do not know whether real estate law and your specific lease contract apply those principles in the same way.
