Residential Tenancy Act 1986

Owners renting their units are governed by the provisions of the RTA 1986. The RTA 1986 clearly sets out the rights and obligations of each party in that relationship. Owners are advised that pursuant to s16B of the RTA 1986 that the Body Corporates Operational Rules form part of any Tenancy Agreement by default. This is to ensure that tenants understand their obligations to the body corporate irrespective of their obligations to an owner. Owners are encouraged to ensure that any tenants are made aware of their obligations in terms of the body corporates Rules and Policies at the commencement of any tenancy arrangement. Owners are able to view the RTA 1986 by using the navigation link below.
