Residential Tenancy Authority (RTA)

[Print-friendly version]

The RTA looks after the laws for renting a place to live in Queensland (the Residential Tenancies Act 1994 and the Residential Services (Accommodation)Act 2002).

The law gives tenants, landlords and agents an understanding of their rights and responsibilities when renting.

The RTA can help you learn your rights and responsibilities as a tenant. Get advice on:

• what to do when you're starting a tenancy
• your rights and legal responsibilities as a tenant
• how to get your bond back
• what to do if you have a problem when renting
