Residential Tenancies Delays
Sign Now
Property managers in South Australia are waiting up to 120 days to have some hearings scheduled at the Residential Tenancy Tribunal (RTT).
In the circumstances of a hearing to resolve a matter not related to rental arrears such as a bond dispute, REISA said the delays are even worse, with recent anecdotal evidence suggesting it can take up to 120 days for a hearing to be scheduled.
The delays in securing a hearing can make it harder for tenants to resolve issues and secure accommodation in the future. According to Mr Moulton (REISA), landlords can be left out-of pocket and property managers are “stressed and frustrated by the excessive delays.”
But what is clear, is that there simply isn’t enough staff to carry the load, so phones are ringing-out daily and time delays are increasing excessively.
It’s time to sort out these delays and ensure that this important body is properly resourced to do the job they need to do in supporting the tenancy process in SA.
This petition will be forwarded to Minister John Rau and ALL appropriate media outlets in order to seek a written response outlining the planned and proposed actions of The Department of Consumer & Business Service being put in place to remedy the un-acceptable situation of extended delays currently being experienced by agents and their clients.
