      Another problem that holiday or short term letting causes is the noise that some holiday tenants make. The permanent neighbours would have to tolerate different behaviours each time the holiday tenant changes. It might sound like a small issue but for the permanent residents there, it can be pretty infuriating at times. The authorities ought to do something about this issue immediately as it is also very unfair for other owners who are renting out units on a long term basis and charging much lesser. If renting out for storage purposes is still ok, but definitely not for stay.

        I think the explanation is rational. Whoever causes the problem should indeed be the party to pay for the damages, even if they occur outside of their own premises. I think it is just fair. The same rule applies to our self-storage in Blue Mountains. If there are any damages to our customers’ belongings inside their units, we investigate the root of the problem. If it is a leakage from outside for example, we will compensate them back the full costs. However, if the customers’ belongings damage our property, they will be liable in that case.
