    Tenant issues

    I think you will find if you approach the strata manager they will inform the owner of the offending unit. YOu could also have it added to the agenda for the next strata meeting so that it is recorded in the minutes.

    Those Annoying Real Estate Agents

    Become a regular at your local coffee shop. When working as an agent, i met alot of the community at the coffee shop, just buying a coffee having a chat to the owners and he would introduce me to other customers. Had a few referrals and even a sale out of it :) Yes there were other agents...

    Buying/selling with novelty numbers (eg. $333,333)

    Question about the Updated Residential Tenancies Act 2010

    I think you will find that a service like rental rewards takes a fee of like 1.7% of the payment. What it trying to say is that you cannot force a tenant to use a system like rental rewards that takes this fee. Only bank fees charged by the tenants own account are acceptable. So money...
