Landlords 'held to ransom by renters' in Aussie state leads to calls for change
Aussie father of two Dan Yeats thought buying an investment property would help set him up for retirement. But purchasing an interstate home through his self-managed superannuation fund turned into a months-long nightmare and a very expensive lesson.
When his tenants stopped paying rent and refused to vacate they managed to stay in the property by delaying tribunal hearings and taking advantage of Victoria's tenancy laws which have increasingly emphasised the rights of renters. And when he finally got his hands back on the property late last year, he was left with a massive and ugly clean up job.
"I never in my life dreamed that they could get to this point," he told Yahoo Finance.

‘Unacceptable odour’: SEMAWP waste station refused
A waste-to-energy project across nine councils – including Casey – is teetering after a waste-transfer station (WTS) in Hampton Park was rejected by VCAT.
The WTS’s operator Veolia Recycling & Recovery had appealed to VCAT after the Environment Protection Authority Victoria refused a development licence last year.
On 10 April, VCAT member Nick Wimbush upheld the EPA refusal, largely because of the potential odour impacts on nearby residents.
The WTS was planned to collect up to 550,000 tonnes of waste a year from nine municipalities, as part of the South East Metropolitan Advanced Waste Processing consortium project.
The waste would then be compressed and bulk-delivered to a waste-to-energy (WTE) incinerator in Maryvale.
