My real estate agent has scheduled a periodic inspection for a day next week, between 10-4pm.
I work full time, live alone, & can’t be there that day.
I asked the agent if we could reschedule the date so I can be there.
They have refused.
I’m not comfortable with them coming without me there.
Can they do that?

A landlord or their agent can enter your home for an inspection without your consent, provided they have given seven days notice in writing. If notice is posted, the landlord/agent must allow an extra four working days for delivery.
They are allowed to do this a maximum of four times per year. Have a look at the TenantsNSW fact sheet HERE.
If you are uncomfortable with this arrangement and can't be there yourself, you might want to get a friend or neighbour to attend on your behalf.
