Renting

If you rent or manage a house, unit, share house, room, caravan or houseboat in Queensland there are rules that must be followed. These rules are set out in the Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 (the Act).

COVID-19 Changes

In Queensland, rules for tenants & residents and agents, managers & owners may differ to other states or countries.

There are rules applicable to tenants & residents and agents, managers & owners regarding the start of a new tenancy.

Tenants & residents and agents, managers & owners have responsibilities throughout the tenancy.
