We have all heard that property is nine tenths of the law. If you haven’t you have now. Although just a common saying on television by actors, property is the bedrock of asset-building and wealth growing in Western Australia. Many individuals purchase a property and lease it out for additional income. This situation creates a relationship under general law between the lessee (landlord) and lessor (tenant). This article explores briefly the difficult situations that arise in tenant and landlord situations, e.g. when a relationship exists, from a West Australian context.
