Making Rental Property Compliance Easy
Home and Rental Compliance Services, based in Sunbury, undertakes professional electrical safety testing and compliance checks for rental properties on behalf of real estate agents.
We make life easier for real estate agents across Melbourne’s western suburbs, ensuring critical electrical checks are undertaken on rental properties every two years in accordance with proposed changes to the Residential Tenancies Act 1997 (Vic).
Key Reasons for Scheduled Electrical Safety & Compliance Checks
- Legal compliance: Ensures landlords and property managers meet the requirements under the Residential Tenancies Act 1997 (Vic), which mandates safety checks every two years.
- Tenant safety: Identifies and addresses potential electrical hazards such as faulty wiring, unsafe switchboards, or non-functioning safety switches that could lead to shocks, fires, or electrocution.
- Preventative maintenance: Detects minor issues before they become costly repairs or emergencies, reducing long-term maintenance costs and property damage.
- Insurance protection: Demonstrates due diligence in property management, which can be crucial in the event of an insurance claim or liability issue.
- Peace of mind: Provides reassurance to landlords, property managers, and tenants that the electrical systems are professionally checked and safe to use.
