I get what is being said. It is neither the landlord or my fault, neither could forsee. I get pest control is a tenant thing but to me this is a special case. The leaking hot water system has caused the issue, nothing that I did. So I think to say the infestation is my problem as a tenant is...

I didn't know the hot water system had been leaking. The system is in the cupboard and sits on a concrete floor which is probably 7 cm deeper than the kitchen floor (built for hotwater system to fit I'm guessing). So i had no indication it was leaking until the smell. Smell + water sitting for...

The area is no longer wet, this happened 6 months ago. We are way past infestation stage. I have done as much as I can. And you are probably right, pest control probably won't fix the problem. There are just too many places that eggs can be laid. The kitchen is 40 years old. I'm just over the...

Just wanted some feedback. The hot water system is in a kitchen cupboard which is never opened. The system was leaking without me knowing about, I'm guessing for a week or two. I saw the odd cockroach which I thought was a bit weird but being busy, I didn't think much of it until I came home...

Ah yes my building has a funny smell in the halls to! My place isn't that bad, I actually quite like it as it has a bigger kitchen even if it is falling apart. I just don't think it's worth the rent increase. And if it is going to go up every few months, i definitely can't justify it. Hopefully...

that is true, but if you end up having $20 increase every 6 months, surely it'd be worth moving, esp me with just have bit of furniture in a studio. Shame I can't afford to buy. Dealing with greedy dodgy real estates for the god knows how many years does not sound fun.

the lease is up on 6th november, then it goes onto a continuing lease month to month basis. the rent increase is effective from 22nd december. I just checked the lease. The real estate typed out some additional terms and conditions, 'special conditions' they call them. Whether I am on a fixed or...

I moved into a rental property 6 months ago, I requested a lease for 12 months but only got a 6 month one. I am currently paying $270 in Enmore (Newtown area) in Sydney for a 24 sq metre studio. I just received a letter from the real estate saying that the rent will rise to $290 on 22/12/10...
