Smoke Alarms for your Rental Property?

As a landlord you have a duty of care to your tenants across a number of areas. One of these legislated requirements is the installation and maintenance of smoke alarms in your rental property. These alarms need to meet the requirements of the Building Code of Australia, Environmental Planning and Assessment Act & the Residential Tenancies Act. Many properties being inspected are found to be non-compliant (see below).

(Information on your responsibilities as a landlord from NSW FIRE & RESCUE)

Their tax deductible $99/year all-inclusive subscription program gives you peace of mind as it ensures 100% compliance when it comes to your responsibilities as a landlord.
