Hi All.

Hi 607.

Hi Lilyhutch.
Need a lawyer's opinion on this one, hmmmm  there's one around here somewhere….

Suggestions
Visit the REA and have a friendly chat.
Maybe pay them to at least instal a tenant for you then you self manage thereafter.
Most REAs don't want reluctant captive landlords, they can be more nuisance cost and trouble than they're…[Read more]

It's a Police matter and not grounds to break a fixed term lease.
You could do a deal if you want but you don't want to be out of pocket for tenant changeover costs and rent.
They may need an AVO if they can justify it.
As a landlord you could look at improving home security, like screens, sensor lights, lock the elec meter box and water mains…[Read more]
