putting timber floor down instead of carpet is a very selfish thing to do , YOU HAVE NEIGHBOURS please remember that , if you want timber flooring , get a FREE STANDING HOUSE  , my upstairs neighbours have a timber floor , it wasnt so bad when the last tenants where there as they were never really home , but the new tenants have a pool table and every day ( almost 24/7 ) they are playing it , not only can we hear them smashing the balls , we also hear when the ball falls off the table ( very regular) , we told our real estate and they told us there is not much we can do about it – apart from asking them to put rugs under the pool table 

well thats not good enough , we are taking them to the CTTT , we do not have any acoustic specialists but we do have pictures from when they advertised the unit for rent , along with stat dec's from neighbours and visitors stating the amount of noise created by these rude tenants

Its going to be one expensive exercise for the landlord of that unit , our strata bylaws state no timber flooring is allowed ( i live in a 21 unit , 7 story block , my neighbours or on level 4 ) , the o/c are also unaware ( well not now ) 

 

and to ” disappointed ” you need to get a house not a unit – its very selfish what you want to do – its irrelevant what your neighbours have as a floor covering – 2 wrongs do not make a right !! these by laws are there for a reason – timber flooring is obviously going to make noise no matter how you put it down ( either above you or below you , but most likely BOTH ) , think about your fellow human and do the right thing

Unfortunately the CTTT can do what they want , i have personal experience at this – 

a few years ago i had a landlord that thought he could do what ever he liked and we had no say in it , cut a long story short , we took him to the CTTT to enforce our rights as tenants , ie leave us alone to live in peace 

i had video recording of what he was doing and what he was saying , i could not use these as evidence , however he told the sitting member that i stole a vehicle – i asked for proof and to please have the police present to arrest me , the member then turned to my ex landlord and stated that he should have made a counter application to have us removed as PESTS as it would have been easier for the member to rule on that , WTF!!! i had a go at him and it didnt turn out so well lol , 

my point being that the sitting member did 2 very illegal and very discriminatory actions – which i got reversed on appeal ( very hard to get an appeal but the guys in Tamworth took one look and approved my appeal ( the wording was ” it appears the decision made was unfair and not legal” not exact wording but same meaning ) 

the first thing he did wrong was to tell the landlord how to evict us and the second was for taking into account a criminal action that had no basis nor facts around it , like i said i encouraged them to call the police and they refused – who in their right mind would refuse that lol

My Ex landlord made up the car story and was believed without any proof offered !

the member actually stated to me “why would my landlord lie” ( that is word for word ) – now how can any professional ask that question , im not qualified to answer that !

 

The sitting member displayed extreme bias for the landlord ( cant prove it but to this day i think they were friends )
