How to deal with tenancy disputes as a landlord in Australia?

  • September 7, 2023

Home " Legal Blog " Uncategorised " How to deal with tenancy disputes as a landlord in Australia?

If you rent out your property to tenants, you will end up facing the following issues:
Rent arrears - When a tenant fails to pay rent, you need to find out why. If it has nothing to do with you or the property, you should consider whether to offer a temporary discount or re-let the property. Often, Australian law protects tenants and it will be difficult for you to force someone out, so make sure you've dealt with everything else correctly before considering this option. If the person is not paying rent because of the condition of the property, you may want to consider making improvements to the property to improve goodwill.
Damaged or unclean home - You can usually deduct the deposit if the tenant has left the home very dirty or damaged the home or furniture. It's a good idea to take photographs of every corner of the property at the start and end of the tenancy and keep invoices to show how much you have spent on cleaning or repairing the property and provide them to the tenant. Problems usually arise if you fail to deposit your deposit with RTBA.
Early termination of tenancy - If the tenant wants to leave before the agreed time, you will need to find a replacement tenant immediately. You can ask the tenant to pay you an indemnity, which is usually the amount of the deposit.
If you are unable to resolve an issue with your tenant, Chua Hing Wai Solicitors have over thirty years' experience of dealing with a wide range of tenancy disputes and we have successfully resolved many complex tenancy disputes. You can call 03 9602 3988 to make an appointment to speak to one of our solicitors.
