A colleague has asked you for some advice about some situations that have occurred recently in a property management context. They want to know:

• What legislation might be relevant for each situation
• Whether the legislation is federal or state/territory based
• What should have happened in each situation, according to the legislation
• Whether there are any ethical issues to consider

 

When you list the legislation, make sure you include the full title and the year in your answer. You can use dot points or a short paragraph for each situation.

i). A landlord has contacted the property manager to explain they are thinking about selling their rental property soon, but

they are not sure what to tell the tenants who are currently living in the property and still have two months left on their

fixed term lease.

j). A tenant is worried that their bond is being held by the property manager in their office and they have been told by

the property manager that their bond will be kept securely in the office safe for the duration of the tenancy agreement.
