The Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 (the Act) is the law that covers tenants and lessors as well as residents and providers in Queensland. This law may apply to you if you rent shared accommodation. The Act applies to all bond money that is paid for residential accommodation, including share accommodation.
Each type of renter has different rights and responsibilities under the Act and some are not covered at all.
