The Tenants Rights Manual - NSW informs tenants of their rights and how they can act on them. The Manual is the tenancy 'bible' for tenants and people giving tenancy advice. It contains practical up-to-date material on a range of tenancy issues in a readable plain English format.
What can you do if your rent is going up? Who is responsible for what repairs? When can you be evicted? Where can you go if you have a problem with your landlord? The Tenants' Rights Manual - NSW has the answers to these and many other questions. Practical and easy to use, and including 44 sample letters, the Tenants' Rights Manual clearly explains tenants' legal rights and obligations and how to resolve problems before they become major disputes.


This 4th edition is completely revised and updated, including:


all the changes to renting laws made by the Residential Tenancies Act 2010, including the new provisions about rent arrears, sales of premises, share housing and tenancy databases


an expanded chapter on social housing, with information about eligibility, rent rebates and public housing policies


a new chapter on marginal renting, with information for boarders and lodgers on the new Australian Consumer Law.
