Emergency: A landlord can enter without notice and at any time in case of an emergency that threatens the safety of the occupants or the property.[1]

Abandonment: A landlord may enter without notice and without the tenant’s permission if the dwelling unit has been abandoned. A unit is considered “abandoned” in Indiana if the tenant has not paid rent or offered to pay rent, and the circumstances are such that a reasonable person would conclude that the tenant had surrendered possession.[2]

Court Order: A landlord may enter without the tenant’s permission pursuant to a court order.[3]
