Hi
One of the biggest news items for property investors in the past week has been the return to Parliament of the Residential Tenancies Act.
We often call this the bible for property managers as it gives the rules for both landlords and tenants.
There have been some significant changes to what was proposed earlier this year and they appear (assuming they get through Parliament) to be a win for landlords.
We had a brief piece in last week's newsletter on the changes - unfortunately there were a couple of mistakes in that report. You can read more about the actual changes on Landlords today.
The theme of the week has been that there appears to be more good news for the market with strong immigration numbers and an economic indicator point to better times ahead for house prices.
Have a great weekend.
Warm regards
The Landlord
