As housing gets progressively harder to find, people tend to bite the bullet and lower their standards.
But what are tenants really willing to give up in exchange for accommodation?
What joy is there in life?
Its gonna have to be a smash and dash.
What a landlord can and cant do can be drastically different in one territory or another.
For example, the sometimes controversial question of pet ownership in a rental property.
However, landlords can still ban them if they can demonstrate reasonable grounds for it.
In contrast, the Northern Territory has outright banned pet bonds.
However, in theory, they could drop by to see if there is some stranger in your bed.
For example, in Victoria, landlords can show up with only 24 hours notice.
However, thankfully, for most tenants, this can happen only once every six months.
In most Australian territories, there has to be at leastseven to fourteen daysnotice.
Landlords seem to take the lord part very seriously, to the detriment of all of us.
The listing actually mentions that this is for fire safety reasons.
Overall, it simply seems that some landlords have realized that they can get away with quite a bit.
Tenants feel under pressure and will compromise to get something livable in their price range.
Fortunately, most people thought this rule was ridiculous, indicating that landlords cant just get away with anything.
