23.01.2022 Rent reductions for your tenants It is hard not to be compassionate in times like this and we all know there will be requests from tenants to reduce rents, or r...equests to stop paying rent altogether in these times. So, with these real risks and the risk of your tenant giving notice and vacating your investment property, there are several steps that you should consider before as a landlord you make any decisions. Yes, banks are offering repayment breaks for your mortgage, but this is not for free to you. You will still be incurring interest during this time. So, at the end of the break, your mortgage owing will be higher as this incurred interest will have been added to your mortgage to payback. Plus, you still have rates and property maintenance costs to consider. So what should you do? First, you should call your insurance company to find out if you are covered for loss of rent if your tenant cannot pay due to COVID-19, under your landlord insurance policy. Then if a tenant/s asks for a rent reduction or total rent relief, you know and understand their policy’s. Combined with this request, you should seek to find out more as to how your tenant claims they are impacted and seek proof on their reasons. So, you are not making financial decisions that impact you with no groundings for any request made. Things for you to consider asking of your property manager: 1. Get them to send you a copy of the termination of employment letter. 2. Or, a letter stating your tenants working hours have been reduced. 3. Request your property manager calls their employer for a verbal confirmation of the above. 3. Request a further letter confirming they then applied with Centrelink for the JobSeeker or a letter from their employer that they will be paying them via JobKeeper allowances. 5. Further, if two or more person/s are on your lease, confirm both leaseholders are impacted. It may be that whilst one is impacted, their combined incomes put them in a good position to still afford to be paying the ongoing rent. But above all we believe it’s always best to plan ahead of time and of course, to be compassionate. So please reach out to our team for assistance if you end up needing to request a repayment break on your mortgage to cover repayments in these times.

01.01.2022 This is in Western Australia, but if it works there it could be suggested in other states. An ongoing Stamp duty tax, instead of one-off stamp duties. Would this new tax have an end date, once you had paid back the full amount of what would have been charged in one-off Stamp duties or would this become an ongoing tax for your life of ownership? We are guessing they would want it to become ongoing?
