you certainly cant break the lease just to have another tenants move in at a better $$$ but i was under the assumption that a 30 day notice could be given when the landlord is intending to move into his "own" property...??? dont quote me on it !!
Sorry, Xenia, but now I have to quote you.No amount of notice can be given by a landlord to break a fixed term lease EVER!!!!
Tenants can break a lease easily!
I'm not a Vic landlord, and I would have thought the same as you; I'm only quoting what I found.When I tried to get the tenants (came with my PPOR) out before the fixed term lease expiration date. Office of Fair trading in Vic told me that I cannot do so if the tenants refuse to leave. They said that the notice period of 60 days is when the lease is expired. They said the tenants had the right to not want to move out.
Really?? That's news to me!
Im in a situation where i am thinking about getting out of the place im renting now, due to it being waaay too hot without aircon, and starting to get over it. Landlord did all the legwork to install aircon, then decided at the last minute that it was "too expensive".
The lease expires in May this year.
On what grounds can i break the fixed term lease?
EDIT - nevermind! I found all the info i need here - http://www.tenants.org.au/publish/factsheet-16-ending-tenancy-early/index.php
