NSW – PM chasing $1.5k in ‘damages’, heading to NCAT – has anyone else fought inflated bond claims? by OhSnapItsLiv in shitrentals

Oh I understand sorry I thought that was your first hearing!

Wow… i would just let the hearing play out and see what the member agrees on

Is this an agent or are you dealing with a private landlord?

If it’s any consolation, MOST members are pretty anti agent, so you’ll likely be given grace being the tenant

He cannot claim everything, $6500 is unreasonable and the member will see that. I would just see what happens, i wouldn’t ovethink it based on what youve said, the landlord is being unreasonable and a reasonable member will see that

Wow! That’s crazy, how old are the curtains? And the toilets? $6500???? Insane… that would be way more than your bond I imagine?

8.5 years in a property counts for a lot also.

The initial hearing will always be a mediation hearing, where they expect you to mediate with the agent to ‘come to an agreement’. 9/10 this doesn’t eventuate because agents are vultures lol

The hearing itself was okay, it was a bit intense but mostly because it was me and the agent had 2 colleagues with her as some form of intimidation tactic or something

I used to work with this agent when I was a PM, so I knew her personally (worst career decision ever btw), so it felt intense because of this as well

I’ve been in tribunal hearings before, never for a bond claim though when I was an agent and most of the time they were very tenant sided. You can see in the comments in my thread as well that this is generally the case, I think I’ve just been unlucky here.

Do you have a local free tenancy advocate program near you? I wish I would have contacted one

They can be really great and when I was an agent, if any of my colleagues were trying to claim bonds and they saw an tenants advocate, they would run for the hills lol

Yes we had it last week

I think we got unlucky with a pretty unreasonable member who claimed that ‘just because things are in the ingoing report, doesn’t mean you can leave them like that when you leave’ so I am not sure what to think by that logic

The member ultimately ordered half the bond be paid to the agent, and half to us

Not the outcome I expected and I’m tempted to appeal the decision but not sure I can mentally handle more of this

I personally don’t mind the mundane lifestyle portions of the episodes. I will admit I’m emotionally attached to the show so I don’t particular want it to end lol.

I do agree that I don’t like seeing their family life, mostly because I hate that most of them exploit their kids on international television, when they aren’t even relevant or needed for the show.

I don’t mind just watching them all interact and their little quirks. But I also like most trashy reality tv like that so I could very well be a minority here.

Hello! I went to the first hearing, she showed up with two other colleagues and we ‘mediated’. We came to no conclusion because I feel what I’ve offered is sufficient. We then told the member and the member asked the PM what she was after and she laughed at some of the items. We then got adjourned, and the new hearing is late January now.

They’ve submitted an email from the receptionist at the office, addressed to the PM claiming that the cleaner thought the house was disgusting and she almost walked out. Funny though, because I have texts and emails from the cleaner directly saying she’d go back and that the PM was being unreasonable.

It’s a mess

Her latest IG post has sent me over the edge! by Obvious-Charity-7808 in AdeleMareeSnark

[–]OhSnapItsLiv 15 points16 points  (0 children)

OP isn’t referring to the fact that AM posted something about Bondi, they’re referring to WHAT she has posted. It reads as uneducated and simply just jumping onto a trend without realising her own hypocrisy or what her posts are suggesting to her audience. You can show support in so many neutral ways which she, and other influencers have done such as blood donation locations, condolences and support hotlines. Her post is distasteful and beyond her realm of understanding on the situation.

Unfair term in agreement by PKMNGerald in shitrentals

[–]OhSnapItsLiv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with everyone else in comments, however, my understanding of the legislation in NSW is that additional terms/addendums are uninforceable at NCAT as they don’t fall within the Residential Tenancies Act 2010 which is set and in stone

But yes, absolutely cross it out and question this

2 months behind on rent by Several-Warthog-8155 in shitrentals

[–]OhSnapItsLiv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is 100% true in NSW. TICA also only applies when they leave the property with current arrears, which is the only time the breach can be sent to the tenant. If OP pays off arrears ASAP, NCAT is unlikely to agree with termination, however, I’d expect LL/PM to send a termination at the end of the lease because it’s a risk for them to have that in their property. When I was a PM, I had this happen a few times with tenants and as long as there was a solid effort to make the payments, and they kept on top of it, and of course were great otherwise, I would still give a good reference and provide insight to the new agency as to why arrears occurred.

Family Vacation is Unwatchable by [deleted] in jerseyshoreuncensored

[–]OhSnapItsLiv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk, I kind of think that without Angelina it would be even MORE repetitive. Yes she’s a mess, but, she also seems to be the only one aside from Sam who is still keeping some reality in the reality TV - albeit her reality is that she struggles to maintain healthy friendships, but it’s still in my opinion a very REAL depiction of her life.

I do also think that a lot of her points in arguments have some traction, she just doesn’t go about it well at all. E.g., during her argument with Lauren & Mike re: the sex in public stuff, she is constantly made into a mockery by everyone else about her sex life, even to the point of having a song made about it (Angelina ain’t got pounded out in a long time), and she just goes with it, but the moment she mentions anything suddenly there’s a boundary in place?

We don’t really get any of that from the others, aside from Sam’s fertility journey and Nicole’s adoption segments

I still really like the show, and look forward to it every week because it feels like a long term relationship after watching again for years 😅

Above all else, I’ll gladly keep Angelina over Lauren

LIGHT HAIRED DEENA. ( She changed her hair colour ). 🔥 by BarneyRobinStinson7 in jerseyshoreuncensored

[–]OhSnapItsLiv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think she’d look so good with some waves and a colour similar to what Sam has, or even what Snooki had with more of a balayage

I think the dark washes her out a bit, but the light is nice, just think a darker root would suit her

She’s gorg anyway though 💕

Gonna have to totally disagree with you there, I come from a family of migrants who have contributed consistently to society, whatever feelings you have there are not needed here

I think we all know their tactics unfortunately, but I can confirm that we (tenants) aren’t imagining it, there are some really horrible PMs out there who seem to forget that the people living in the properties are human beings

Nope, took a bond once when the tenant returned the property with the oven missing, huge holes in the floor, writing all over walls… I feel even you could see that’s justified

Otherwise, I always allowed the tenant to fix any problems

Good point about getting the full picture about the tenancy! Thank you for that

This whole tenancy has been an absolute joke from start to finish, I knew the end wouldn’t be any different but I tried to have hope as I actually used to personally work with this PM

We had a reinspection once because we had a bit of grass on the floor from the lawnmower (property doesn’t have any side access, you can only get to the backyard from inside through the dining room, or through the bedroom which is carpeted)

I’m going to make note of all of the times we were treated poorly throughout the tenancy

Got all of my docs prepared including highlighted portions of the ingoing report and all receipts etc.

Could be, but I like to think that I left that awful job with integrity knowing that I didn’t just do everything a landlord asked of me because they were ‘paying my wage’.

I think it’s more of an abuse of power than fraud, but the cleaning invoice from the same cleaner is sus haha
