TENANCY LAWS ARE CHANGING
"Landlords and tenants need to understand the recent changes to tenancy law and how this will affect them. All landlords, including boarding house landlords, must comply with the laws in the Residential Tenancies Act (the Act). From August 2020, broad changes to the Act are taking effect that will impact both landlords and tenants."
