Bond not lodged with authority letter - NSW
The landlord must forward the bond money as soon as practicable or within 10 days after it is paid. If you paid your bond to a real estate agent, they are permitted to pay your bond to NSW Fair Trading within 10 working days after the end of the month. Please note: the landlord cannot request any further security or bond because you did not comply with your tenancy agreement.
After the bond has been paid, the landlord must provide you with a receipt immediately, detailing your name, address and date the bond was paid. You can also request a copy of your rental record at any time as long as you do it in writing.
The landlord must inform you if the owner is:
- putting the property up for sale
- in a contract
- if the mortgagee is taking action against the owner
At the same time, they must not induce you into signing your agreement or make any false, misleading or deceptive or conceal anything. If so, you can make a request to terminate your tenancy agreement.
