it's time for a boundary realignment.
I got a call from our PM on Friday because our tenants have asked if we can reduce their rent by $100 a week as they have lost their rental rebate
I just about choked

We once had tenants (great tenants in all respects) who requested permission to be allowed to have ducks. They had veggie patch and were very environmentally aware, and we said yes to the ducks. This block is 906 sqm, so big enough to hold some ducks.
One day I slipped a letter under the front door, peeked under to ensure it hadn't slid under a mat and that they would find it. I could see what looked like sprinklings of muesli on the floor. Then I realised it was duck poop and feathers etc.
I called them, and they said the ducks had caught cold and they'd brought them up onto the front enclosed verandah while they recovered
.
I suggested to them that they probably needed to look for a rental further out than suburban Coorparoo. They moved with no hard feelings, no problems really and did move to a more rural block. They left the house clean.

Well that is probably a good thing if the kids are scared of the power points. While most parents worry about their children sticking objects in the points this lady does not have to worry at all. You should increase your rent by $10 a week as she is currently receiving the 'peace of mind' for free.
Tenant has informed the agent, from a recent inspection that the toilet seat is broken.
As a landlord am i liable to get this replaced??

I'm no expert, but it's your toilet, why would it be their responsibility?

You can buy a new seat from big w or Bunnings for $6!!!!
... Tax deductible.
Somebody actually stole all the toilet seats at the local police station. Police have nothing to go on.
I hear they're flushed with them.
Its an open and shut case.
Puts a bad mark on their personal file
They must have really hit the skids
Parents should never hit the skids.
