Tenants in Virginia have moderate protections, including the right to safe and habitable housing, privacy with reasonable notice before landlord entry, protection against unlawful eviction, and the return of security deposits within legal limits. Landlords must follow formal eviction procedures, comply with lease terms and notice requirements, and maintain the property in livable condition, though tenant protections and rent regulations are generally less extensive than in more heavily regulated states.
