Landlord or Tenant - Who is Responsible?

When you move into your rental property, the landlord or property manager must have ensured the premises are habitable and in a reasonable state of cleanliness and repair.

You must keep the property clean and tidy and, at the end of your tenancy, hand it back in a similar condition to how it was at the start of your agreement, taking into account normal use (fair wear and tear).

Fixed-Term or Periodic Tenancy?

Depending on the circumstances, your landlord or property manager may offer you a fixed-term or periodic tenancy lease agreement. All written tenancy agreements must be done using the Residential Tenancy Agreement.
