Walkies friend rents. Her property manager is fkn useless. No inspections in 18 months (good for friend). When the stove/oven died, friend phoned and emailed the agent only to get a reply a month later saying they’d been overseas for six weeks. Too bad if there was an emergency.

I haven’t checked Queensland law, but in Victoria she could legitimately claim it as an emergency (she needs the stove/oven for food,) get someone in to fix or replace it, and get the bill sent to the pm/agent.

I just looked up Queensland law.

Have a look particularly at Part 3, Division 3, Sections 214 to 221C.
