Regardless of the state, it seems to be patently unfair to paint everyone with the same brush (ie. troublemakers). In our case a vexatious complaint to the body corporate in a Surry Hills (Sydney) apartment, put the kibosh on a perfectly reasonable use of a mostly empty apartment. The people were always vetted and only a couple of occasions out of many stays was there any audible noise (very low level). There are leaseholders in the same building who are happy to party on into the night without any comeback from the strata or body corporate. Ironic that Fairfax is the owner of Stayz.com .. one of the very organisations in the marketplace that make a buck out of this concept. The can or worms this has created won’t end easily. And I had to laugh when reading in News pres last week that i can “long term” lease to call girls (2 maximum!) with council blessing .. what a joke.
