I don't know anything about landlord/tenant laws, but I also have to ask....
Why is this such a sticking point between actives and alums? Why do the alums want the ability to do room searches at will? Have the actives and alums sat down and talked about what their goals/expectations/standards are for the house? There might be more behind this....and if you can find out what that is, actives and alums may be able to resolve this.
And while you are talking with a lawyer, find out what would happen if the actives had contraband in their rooms. What liabilities do the alums face if something illegal happens in the house they have helped finance? The risks go both ways, the alums may be trying to cover their butts as well.
