Consented Granny flats who have a non family member residing in it. Could this potentially be a possibility? Operate like a very detailed 'flatmate' agreement where the flatmate may live separately to the owner of the house.
The Residential Tenancies Act (the Act) is the law that protects tenants and landlords in New Zealand. Not all living arrangements are covered by the Act.
The Act applies to every tenancy for residential purposes (renting a place to live in), except in certain cases. The Act doesn’t cover, for example, flatmates, student accommodation, holiday homes, hotels and motels, hospitals and rest-homes, or commercial tenancies.
Sometimes, parties to a living arrangement not covered by the Residential Tenancies Act (the Act) decide they’d like to be covered. To do this, they can make an agreement with each other stating that the Act will apply to their living arrangement. This is known as ‘contracting in’ to the Act.
Not sure who gets the bond as the Act says it goes into the RT Trust Account.
Who deals with disputes? Disputes Tribunal?
How does all the other TT references get handled?
Is this a possibility for the granny flat scenario?
Throw it at me guys..............I am sure there are flaws I cannot see lol.
