How do i arrange any repairs that might be needed?
You need to advise the owner or agent of all requests for maintenance or repairs, preferably in writing.

It is essential that you do not attempt to repairs things yourself. You have a responsibility to advise the agent of maintenance matters that require attention. Your lease will include provisions for how you should handle repairs or maintenance requests.

What should I do if urgent or emergency repairs are need at the property?

Generally emergency repairs are required when the occupants health and safety, or the property itself are threatened.

You should urgently try and contact your agent and ensure you give them the opportunity to arrange for the emergency repairs.

I you can’t contact your agent, you may have been supplied a list of tradespeople to nominated to handle emergencies when you signed your lease.

For further information on repairs please give me call.
