In NSW, landlords can refuse to allow a tenant to keep a pet without providing a reason - unless it’s an assistance animal.
In other states and territories, rules have recently changed to make it easier for tenants to keep pets in rental homes. We’d like your feedback on the current rules in NSW and whether they should also be changed.
We want to hear from tenants, property managers, landlords and anyone interested in this topic.
