^If the owner/manager is renting the moveable dwelling to the tenant, the tenant may give a Notice of intention to leave (Form 13) within the first seven days of occupying the property if:
- the dwelling is not fit for the tenant to live in
- the dwelling or its inclusion are not in good repair
- the managing party is in breach of a law dealing with issues about the health or safety of persons using or entering the dwelling
- the dwelling or its inclusions do not comply with the prescribed minimum housing standards – only effective once minimum housing standards apply to the property. Minimum housing standards came into effect for new tenancies (including renewed tenancy agreements) from 1 September 2023 and commence for all remaining tenancies on 1 September 2024.
The tenant may not give a Notice of intention to leave (Form 13) under this ground if the circumstances mentioned above were caused by an action or failure of the tenant.
Without grounds
For a long term tenancy, the tenant must give at least 14 days notice, unless the caravan park manager has breached the agreement. The tenancy ends on the end date of the agreement or the end date of the notice period (whichever is longer). Parties can agree to end the tenancy earlier but it must be agreed in writing.
