NSW government enacts rental reforms, banning no-grounds evictions, limiting rent increases, and easing pet rules for tenants.
The New South Wales (NSW) government has enacted rental reforms aimed at enhancing tenant protections, including a ban on no-grounds evictions and limiting rent increases to once a year. These changes, part of the Residential Tenancies Amendment Bill 2024, also allow tenants to keep pets more easily. While the reforms are intended to stabilize housing for 2.2 million renters, critics argue they may deter investment in the property market, potentially worsening the housing crisis.
