In the 10 years as a LL I have neither read the RTA nor gone to any tribunal.
I don't vet tenants, never do inspections or do any repairs.
And I've had no problems.
Seems a lot of people's troubles can be resolved with a good PM.
These people should have had training in PM and thus know the RTA and it's ins and outs and there should be a senior manager in the agency that will guide younger staff.
As a minimum as a LL paying a PM you should reveive a copy of a routine inspection report every 3 months. Also, you should authoise the PM that they can spend up to say $250 per month for a single repair up to say $500 (or whatever you decide) so that you don't need to worry about that. You should just get copies of paid repairs attached to the rental statement each month.
