Hi,
Was wondering what is the tenants obligations when they leave the premises with regards to water tanks. It is my understanding they must leave the tank as close to the level that it was given to them upon hand over of the keys? Anyone else had problems with this? RTA isn’t much help on this matter.

if the level was on the condition report you might have a chance to enforce it!
Or, if it was a special condition on the lease to leave it in the same level.
I don’t think here in vic that the RTBA have a special rule pertaining to this.
Is it worth taking to VCAT even if you think you are in the right?

Too bad if they sign up in winter when it’s full and leave in summer when there’s no way it can naturally be full. Depending on the size of the tank it ocld cost a fortune to fill.
Was it written into their lease? With gas bottles we specify in the lease that they are starting with two full ones and must leave two full ones.
i still think seasonal variations would have to come into water tanks though. (Can you tell we have water tanks as our only form of water!)
