I just got an email from my property manager in Brisbane asking me to pay two invoices for maintenance of my property.
I was previously asked for my preferred tradespeople and I have given these as well as authorised the repairs in question. However, in the past, all maintenance has been paid for by the property manager out of the rent after the invoices get forwarded to them. I use the annual summary to help me do my taxes.
They have changed their position on this. Their rationale is:
Due to the new legislation, we are unable to make payments to creditors that are not appointed to our office. Therefore I forward these invoices for your immediate payment.
Has anyone else have this problem?
