I know you're right Kathryn, myself, if I felt in the right and that the vidence backed me up I would rather lose at the tribunal than concede an inch. Now she's living alone in a granny flat. It's really nice. The main house has a lovely (and ver ywealthy it would seem) Brazilian family...

Ok, so is the info below and a one page outline. I'm pretty sure all the facts are in there. So now you know what the story is. I've colled down a bit, but I'm still annoyed it didn't go to the tribunal, I reckon the landlord would have been creamed. Summary of Breaches 7.1 – Privacy...

If it were me, I would send a letter of complaint to the bond board. However, I suspect my sister will want to try to totally forget all the unpleasant feelings associated with this situation. One thing I'm struggling with is having to accept that there is very little I can do and that my...

Argh, I'm so annoyed! Here's what happened, they went to concilitiation and the Landlord asked my sister to pay for electricity, water and gas, as that was in the lease. Fair play, makes sense to me, only she never recorded the metres and there was a third person living there for half the...

Thanks for the replies guys, it's a relief to know that I'm not going crazy or have unrealistic forum expectations. I also think you guys are right and that it's probably more to do with her (JennyP's) terrible situation at the moment. Last thing I want to see is for her to feel cut off from...

Dazz, you hit the nail right on the head. Very well put. That's why I don't share. I myself had a nightmarish experience of moving in to a spare room this girl had. She was totally batsh*t insane. There's a reason it only lasted eight days and I spent half of those at a girl's place who I...

Smart Kathryn, I don't think the LL will be claiming any damage though. Either way, Landlord or tenant, I guess the principle is the same: read the agreement and abide by it. Although, some issues can't be put into an agreement, are very hard to define or very subjective in their...

Re: Jenny P, I wouldn't say it was a hypocritical assumption, I was using short-hand because I was pretty sure people aren't interested in reading the full description of me and my sister's personality types. My view of intelligence is that it takes many forms and expressions, some people are...

I wasn't going to reply until Monday, but I feel tempted enough. I'll give more details after then. There is a lease and there are a few big points on it that the landlord has breached. Also, my sister communicated everything with the landlord via email, just in case and so she would have...

Thanks so much for the idea Wylie, I just finished having dinner with my sister and she had all her documents there. My sister informed her Landlord that she was going to move out subject to breaches of 7.1, 7.2 of the Tenancy Code (whatever it's called) - namely, breach of "quiet enjoyment" by...

Ok, so maybe not crazy, but here goes. My sister was living in a place here in Sydney with another girl, who owned the place. A normal two-bedder. They didn't know each other overly well but they went to the same school together, although in different years. Anyway, this all started...
