    I believe Get It Right may not have experienced holiday rentals in any of the beach suburbs and or when it has gone seriously wrong..

    The crux of the matter here is what kind of tenants are allowed to stay by the holiday rental owner. The “seriously wrong” scenario described above seems more consistent with a hostel or backpacker accommodation and brings up images of schoolies week or backpacker christmas celebrations.

    It is important to separate fear from reality. There is a risk of inconsiderate and negative behaviour from any tenant. Whether this risk is increased by holiday rentals depends on the individual owners and their care factor. Most owners screen for mature and respectful tenants, whether for long-term or short-term leases, even more so for well-furnished apartments.

    The same goes for maintenance and running costs. Some tenants will use common property more than others: do excessive laundry, have excessive rubbish, have pets, etc… While others may hardly ever be in the building at all. Holiday renters are hardly the group that would stay at home and do their laundry all day, they would most likely be out exploring or visiting family and friends.

    L&E court Orders shut down Oaks running serviced apartments in two Sydney City office buildings..

    In “Council of the City of Sydney v Oaks Hotels and Resorts (NSW) No.2 Pty Ltd [2010]”, the Oaks group had development consent to use a select apartments within two buildings as serviced, while the group actually used more apartment than it had permission to.
