Tax and Code inspectors ask for permission to enter the property. I do not believe they have the right to open trespass in any state. I'd be interested if you could provide a link.

- troupe 3y agoThe position of the Attorney General in KS. While usually they do ask in order to preserve peace, the state doesn't feel they are required to. > We believe the duty enjoined upon the appraiser to value real property from an actual view and inspection of the property carries with it the implied authority for the appraiser to enter upon real property to perform this duty, without such action constituting a trespass. However, we also believe that all persons, perhaps especially governmental officers, owe a duty to preserve the public peace. Therefore, it is our opinion that for the limited purpose of appraising a taxpayer's real property and the improvements made thereon, by actual view and inspection, an appraiser may enter upon such property, at a reasonable time, without the prior permission of the taxpayer.
