South Coast Property Specialists (Carlene Franzen) Tips #1159:

In a significant stride towards tenant protection and fairness, the New South Wales (NSW) government enacted the Residential Tenancies Amendment (Rental Fairness) Act 2023 No 9. This landmark legislation, which came into effect on January 1, 2023, introduces a host of changes aimed at promoting stability, transparency, and fairness in the rental market.

Among the key provisions of the Rental Fairness Act is the limitation on rent increases. Under the new law, landlords are restricted to increasing rent only once every 12 months, providing much-needed relief to tenants facing uncertain financial circumstances. Additionally, the Act places a cap on the maximum allowable rent increase, ensuring that rental costs remain reasonable and in line with market trends.

The Act also seeks to enhance security of tenure for tenants. It introduces a minimum rental term of two years for fixed-term leases, giving tenants greater peace of mind and stability in their housing arrangements. Additionally, the 'no grounds' termination of a tenancy has been abolished, meaning that landlords now must provide a valid reason for ending a lease.

Recognizing the importance of pets in the lives of tenants, the Rental Fairness Act includes provisions that grant tenants the right to have pets, subject to certain reasonable conditions. Landlords can no longer unreasonably refuse tenants' requests to keep pets, bringing an end to pet discrimination in the rental market.

Furthermore, the Act strengthens the rights of victims of domestic violence. It allows tenants who are victims of domestic violence to terminate their tenancy quickly and without financial penalty, providing them with a safe pathway to escape harmful living situations.

The Residential Tenancies Amendment (Rental Fairness) Act 2023 No 9 represents a significant step towards a fairer, more equitable rental landscape in NSW. By prioritizing the well-being of both tenants and landlords, this legislation fosters a more balanced and respectful relationship between parties, ultimately contributing to a thriving and harmonious rental market. With these progressive changes, NSW has set a positive example for other regions to follow in their pursuit of a more inclusive and just housing sector.
