(updated on Wednesday, March 04th 2009)
Our Experts Answer:
The Residential Tenancies Act 1986 only applies to the relationship between a tenant and landlord. It does not cover the relationship between a property owner and property manager. I recommend that you seek independent legal advice from your local community law centre about whether you have any recourse with your property manager.The Department of Building and Housing provides information and guidance on building law and compliance, services including weathertight homes, and advice for tenants and landlords.
