Abstract

"This Just In" piece on tenants' rights, noting that violations are commonly reported to Maine housing advocates like Rep. John Eder, Green-Portland, and Heather Curtis, president of the Portland Tenants Union (PTU). Maine law prohibits landlords or their real estate agents from entering an apartment without at least 24 hours notice unless it is an emergency. Despite efforts by the PTU to educated the public on renters' rights, many remain unaware of the legal protections they have.
