Ben Walker Mrs. Reynolds. Year 12 Legal Studies, Response to Stimulus Test, The law and society, renting and buying a dwelling. Dear Daniel, I have been recently notified of your problems with your rental house and offer my legal knowledge to assist you further. Firstly the rent of $150 seems reasonable, yet asking for a bond of $900 dollars is not. The residential tenancies act, on which most of my advice will be based, states that the bond arranged at the start of the lease term can only be four times your weekly rent. The bond you should have been asked to pay should have been in the amount of $600 dollars. The property owner in this case has broken part of the act and mediation over this should be called upon and if this is not successful, you can file a case with the small claims tribunal and maybe claim a small part...
