Description
Renting in Australia can really suck.
With winter over and the end of 2024 approaching, we’re heading towards peak moving season.
Moving house can be one of life’s most stressful events – made even more stressful by the process of trying to get your bond back.
In this two-part feature, The Briefing investigates the messy world of rental bonds. In Part Two, Bension Siebert speaks to Leanne Pilkington, President of the Real Estate Institute of Australia, on what the experience is like on the landlord and agent side of the bond system, and what she thinks might make the system fairer overall.
