Flatmate/landlord do’s and don’t
We recently bought our first home. To help out with the mortgage we got a flatmate/tenant.

RTA Phrase - What Does It Mean?
The quote below is from the RTA interpretation section. (Definition of the words and phrases used in the Act.) My guess was that it related to the executor of a Will. Until I read the next clause which nullified that notion.

90 day tenancy
I used search but couldn't find much.
I want to do a 90 day tenancy, but it seems that if the tenant doesn't move out on day 90 it becomes a normal tenancy. How do you avoid this trap? How do you guarantee that the tenants are out on day 90? -
