My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: California
Hi,
I live in California and rent out a room in a 4 bedroom house in a residential area. The lease agreement was written informally (typed) by the landlord’s translator and states many points. One of the listed agreements states that the landlord can enter any room in the house at any given time with no prior notice if dangerous activity or bad room conditions are suspected. However, the lease does not state that the landlord will have keys and access to the rooms 24/7, which therefore means possible entry without cause or post/prior notice at any time I am not here. The landlord plans to keep the keys in the hands of one of the roommates who currently resides in the house, which is even more unsafe and risks someone leisurely entering any room at any time. However, the landlord does not currently have copies of the room keys and have asked each roommate to make a copy for the above purpose. Is this permitted? I do not wish anyone to have access to my room 24/7 since I cannot filter their cause for entry and I would possibly never find out. I assumed the point on the lease meant forced entry during extreme circumstances, if sufficient reasons are there to cause a forced, unannounced entry. Please let me know what my options are.

Can My Landlord Force Me to Make a Copy of My Room Key if It is Not Stated on the Lea
