It’s time to
make renting fair

Everyone deserves a safe and affordable place to live.

But right now, we’re in a housing crisis, and this isn’t a reality for renters across WA.

It’s great that with the recently announced rental reforms that rent increases will reduce to once every 12 months, and that rent bidding will be banned. We know that not having to give up your pet to keep a roof over your head is a huge step forward.

But tenants still do not have adequate standards for rentals and can still be evicted with no reason from their home.

The Government has left the door open for this change to happen soon, and we have to keep the pressure on. States like the ACT are leading the charge with rental reforms and we can’t let WA fall behind.

Together we can end no grounds evictions and limit rent increases.
