What are Your Rights and
Responsibilities as a
Landlord?
All landlords (or lessors) in
Queensland have many rights
and responsibilities to consider.
The Residential Tenancies
Authority provides a guide for
landlords renting out residential
properties in Queensland.
Landlord insurance
As a landlord you are entitled to
insure your rental property to
cover yourself against possible
f inancial losses, including
damage to the property by
tenants. Landlord insurance
covers the building itself, with the
option of insuring any contents
that belong to you.
Tenant character and credit
checks
Tenancy databases list people
who have previously had
problems with their tenancies.
These problems may include not
paying rent or damaging
property.
Smoke alarms
As a landlord, you are
responsible for installing smoke
alarms in your property.
The Queensland Fire and
Rescue Service provides detailed
information on smoke alarm
legislation.
