Insulation Deadline Looms

Insulation statements are compulsory on all tenancy agreements signed since 1 July 2016. Landlords must disclose whether there is insulation in the rental home, where it is, as well as what type it is and what condition it is in, so tenants can make an informed decision.

Ceiling and underfloor insulation will be compulsory in all rental homes from 1 July 2019, where it is reasonably practicable to install. It must comply with the regulations and be safely installed – failure to comply with this could mean you are up for a $4,000 fine.

If, for whatever reason, you have missed our emails regarding insulation, please contact your property manager and we will sort this for you before the 1^st of July.
