Key Things To Consider When Preparing Your Property For Rental

Are you considering renting out your investment property or your own home? Are you thinking about investing in a rental property? Do you know that there are minimum standards and regulations that owners must comply with in NSW?

Under the NSW Residential Tenancies Act, a landlord must:

  • Ensure that the property must be clean and fit and safe to live in and in a good state of repair.

  • Maintain the premises in good repair and in a way that the premises remain fit for the tenant to live in.
