Residential tenancy management requires property professionals to understand their legal responsibilities while maintaining accurate records and communicating effectively with both tenants and property owners.
This four-hour CPD activity examines contemporary Tasmanian tenancy law and practice, with particular attention to the significant pet reforms commencing in 2026.
Participants also examine repairs, maintenance, notices, rent increases, documentation, dispute management and TASCAT processes.
Real-world scenarios, practical activities and downloadable resources are used to help participants apply the learning directly within property management practice.
ENROL NOW →From 20 March 2026, Tasmania's residential tenancy legislation contains a formal framework governing tenant requests to keep pets.
Property owners and agents generally have 14 days after receiving a compliant request to either provide written consent or refuse consent through the required process.
Where consent is refused, written reasons and an application to TASCAT may be required. The reforms therefore make timely administration, appropriate evidence and accurate documentation particularly important.
Review a tenant's pet request, consider the relevant circumstances and determine the appropriate response and documentation.
Review reported property defects and determine the appropriate response, priority, communication and recordkeeping process.
Review a sample tenancy notice, identify potential defects and determine what should be corrected before the notice is issued.
Effective tenancy dispute management often depends on the quality and organisation of the evidence available.
Participants learn practical approaches to organising communications, notices, photographs, maintenance records, forms and chronological information so that relevant material can be located and presented efficiently.
✓ Tenancy agreement
✓ Relevant notices and forms
✓ Emails and communication records
✓ Photographs and inspection evidence
✓ Repair and maintenance records
✓ Chronology of relevant events
✓ Supporting documents
Participants complete a structured assessment covering tenancy knowledge, practical application and compliance decision-making.
10–15 multiple-choice questions covering key concepts addressed throughout the four modules.
