The Residential Tenancies Act (the Act) is the law that safeguards...

I have a rental that due to current tenants being less than ideal has ended up rather tatty. To really get it back up to scratch might take a few months given the difficulty of finding tradesmen and materials. This leaves us without rent for quite a while.

I've looked around and I can't get a clear answer. Do I need my ex-wifes consent to sever our joint tenancy agreement and enter into tenants in common?

According to Tenancies Wars, (badly) damaging a tenancy property breaches the Crimes Act. But - supposedly - when asked to investigate, police bow out swiftly, murmuring that such damage is an RTA matter. Is it?

Has anyone tried involving the Police in any wilful damage of a residential...

When scouring the RTA for something else, I chanced upon a matter that piqued my interest. So I have a question:

If a LL has a building that is two own-your-own terraced (adjoining) flats, lives in one and lets the other, is any tenancy of that other flat exempt from the RTA, so long as...
