去年从租房中介Calamvale的Wavecrest Realty手里收回房子,算是见识到什么是澳洲人的诚信。大家都知道,房屋租赁中介是收取房东佣金,在法律上被要求act in landlord's best interest。我这次倒是遇到一个很有民族气节的Aussie中介,拼了老命了也要帮着Aussie房客耍我这个新移民房东。
I have found out that most locals are very cunning, so you need to be very careful in every dealings with them.
You must have a proper record of all the actions and conversations you have had with this agent, and record this in spreadsheet or word, and summit to RTA or a tribunal court. The one with the best records wins!!! I recently went through a legal training workshop and this is what i was told.
Remember all, in Australia, everything has to be in Black and White. Do proper recording of anything you feel you are being taken advantage of.
