Now they want $150 a week compensation.....
When I saw your post I immediately thought of the movie "The Castle"
I would be quoting Daryl Kerrigan... "Tell him he's dreaming!"

Now they want $150 a week compensation.....
That sounds fair enough as long as they come through with the goods.
What sort of a discount are we talking?

1) Take them to the tribunal over the late rent while they are on holidays and give your PM the instruction to get them out ASAP because you want to move in.
2) Once they are out, put it on the market and employ a debt collection agency to recover lost rent
3) make sure you list them on TICA so they can never rent again.
4) If you can get a lawyer to write them a letter advising you will take them to court if they don't move out even better.

YES, they are losers. If they are not paying their rent, they don't deserve to stay. End of story.
Get them to the tribunal. If they are already late with the rent, then the 14 days should be well & truely up by the time they return.
You could easily do this too, another easy solution for your problem, but again you have ignored this advice. In fact I would probably be giving them notice to vacate for the late rent AS WELL AS THIS.1. served 60 day notice to vacate (selling property). This is the option we take for tenants who may pose problems for access, presentation etc, and/or where the property needs work
What a joke. This has come about because they think you are a softy. Toughen the heck up. Like Mark said in a previous post, take your skirt off & go put some pants on. Show them you mean business. Don't give in to them & don't be scared of the Tribunal. It is there to protect Landlords from over demanding tenants just as much as it is to protect Tenants from bad Landlords. Unless you ARE a bad Landlord, you have NOTHING to worry about.Now they want $150 a week compensation.....
To even allow it to get to $30 pw under market, shows that you need to toughen up. Owning Real Estate is a Business afterall & to be successful, you need to remember that. You couldn't lease a car & pay $30pw less. You also couln't lease a car & tell them that you want $150pw compensation if the car is going in for repairs either. What makes this any different.They are already about 30 a week under market value, there rent is 330.
Glenn they dont have a lease but it seems I cant get rid of them without a reason....
if I use renovating.. then I have to prove I have done something major , if I say I am moving back in then I cant relet it for 6 months. Selling is 60 days but you have to sell , if not you have get tribunal approval to relet ( if they were to complain which they will)
I have to wait now and give them 120 days no reason notice (if I dont sell) and they can still take me to the tribunial and get that stopped....they are nasty and I dont know how to deal with them ....they use the tribunial as a threat but when I DO investigate it always seems to be in their favor...

We have decided to sell one of out IP, two reasons...we need the cash at the moment and we had difficult tenants.
The agent rang the tenants to say the property was on the market... and was greeted with
dont think you will be bringing people through all the time. We wont have an open house...and you cant show people through while we are on holidays...( going to Vanuatu while they are late with the rent....another story)
The agent let it go and another agent rang back the next day explaining that they could be easy to get along with or the agent would issue 24 hours notice and then bring people through... that if they wanted help looking for another place then it would be to their benefit to be helpful.... Times for open houses were agreed upon.
Today the agent gets a call what will their compensation be....
I dont know whether to laugh or cry....

I would love to get rid of them...
Glenn they dont have a lease but it seems I cant get rid of them without a reason... ..
The house on the market ....a friend went around to the open for inspection... the house was dirty ( always very tidy for inspections) clothes on the floor , carpets stained, beer bottles ont he sink. The agent went around for the next open house and the house smelt found the dog had been locked inside and had shat in the ensuite....
Spoke to the selling agent they said dont upset the tenant while they are paying and they are allowing reasonable access...and that I cant complain about their house keeping....the agents are looking after this and I am to leave it to them...
Do I just let the agent deal with it
Tell the agent I want the tenant out....
