Quiet Enjoyment
The tenant's right to use and enjoy the rental property without unreasonable interference from the landlord. This does not mean noise level. It means the landlord cannot harass the tenant, enter without notice, shut off utilities, or take actions that make the property unusable. Violating the covenant of quiet enjoyment can constitute constructive eviction and gives the tenant legal remedies including lease termination.
