半夜热的睡不着,请教大家怎么对付无良中介?
PERTH今天的温度43/21度,我刚搬到新房子不到2周,签的合同中房子带空调,但是却发现空调不制冷,本周即多次与中介联系怎么处理,但中介一副公事公办的态度:说是已经 ...
看看这个:咨询consumer protection, 询问你家有小孩,然后40多度,能否要求Urgent repair,可以的话,马上联系你的中介,Urgent repair本身说法就比较含糊,不过最起码你可以要求中介!省得浪费时间等,这几天确实很热,支持一下。

Urgent repairs
Unless the written agreement states otherwise, you can organise urgent repairs if the damage is likely to cause injury or problems and you've made a reasonable attempt to notify the landlord of the problem. In this case, you must not have caused the problem by failing to keep to the agreement, or causing a problem through wilful or neglectful action.
If a notice is served on the landlord requiring urgent repairs to be carried out but it is ignored, you can then have urgent repairs carried out by a tradesperson and claim back the costs from the landlord. This only applies if the agreement does not require you to obtain the landlord/owner's written permission to have repairs done.
Examples of urgent repairs are:
a burst water pipe or broken hot water system;
a gas leak or electrical fault likely to endanger people or damage property;
a sewerage system blockage or broken sewerage fitting;
damage from flooding, storms or fire; or
a broken major appliance such as a stove or refrigerator (if included in the tenancy).
You can recover the costs of urgent repairs from the landlord, but these costs must be reasonable and the work must have been carried out by a qualified tradesperson, who should give the landlord a written report on the apparent cause of the problem.
You should get at least two quotes first. Keep in mind that a tenancy agreement prepared by the Real Estate Institute of WA (REIWA) does not allow tenants to undertake emergency repairs although other standard tenancy agreements may allow it. |
