      Good morning,

      May I request some information on overcrowding please.

      Would a single parent with 3 teenage kids in a studio unit be considered overcrowding?

      Thanks in advance

      Luke

        Luke – it’s generally accepted that the numbers of permanent adult residents in a Strata Titled property should not exceed two (2) per bedroom, but that’s unenforceable unless it’s shown in a Registered Special By-Law of the Owners Corporation of the building or it’s a Condition of Council’s Development Consent for that building.

        Of course, if you’re a tenant the maximum number of occupants permitted will be shown on your Tenancy Agreement.

        As a personal observation, depending upon the size of the studio it seems a little cosy to me, but if the teenagers are well behaved (read quiet) and everyone, including the neighbours is happy, then what the hey!
