And be able to be suspended? This issue has been in the media lately. From Bindi Norwell and today from tenant advocates (RNZ link below).
The RNZ interview today is quite muddled, cherry picking anecdotes as if they are the norm. That aside, good to hear from tenants and advocates. We don't always.
Advocate issues included - maintenance not being done, bonds not lodged, joint and several liabilities being left to fewer tenants than on the TA, property managers just out of uni with no clue, PMs who can't cope with their workloads especially where there are many tenants in one rental on rent-by-the room, too hard to go to the Tenancy Tribunal and if they do they get turned down for rentals later.
Anecdotes usually.
I wonder if RNZ will run a counter argument that PMs should not be registered? Probably not. Extra bureaucracy / control is the go to solution these days.
Noticeable that the media like Stuff are now poring over TT decisions and publishing some. Very even handed - one bad landlord, one bad tenant. Very representative of numbers of TT decisions!
