Housing & neighbourhood disputes

This section is about housing and the law. It looks at different kinds of tenancy arrangements and the rights and responsibilities of tenants and property owners. These include rules about:

  • tenancy agreements
  • bonds
  • repairs
  • privacy
  • eviction and ending a tenancy arrangement.

There is also information about common issues between neighbours, like noise or putting up a new fence, and how these can be resolved if neighbours can’t come to an agreement.
