    Urgent! Tenants vacating - Water damaged floor board

    In Victoria it is the responsibility of the tenant to report issues such as this, but my first question would be why was it not noticed at routine inspections? If you were to try and take this to VCAT you would not gain any compensation as the damage has clearly been caused by a leaking shower...

    Falling leaves on footpath. Who's responsible?

    You mentioned it is a townhouse. Owners Corp will have building insurance in place as well as liability insurance if she is going down that path. Your PM needs to make immediate application to Tribunal to have possession order granted so you can get her out. Stalling tenants always worry me...
