Major rent change sparks landlord uproar: ‘Worked extremely hard’

New Western Australian tenancy rules took effect limiting rent increases to once every 12 months and allowing renters to seek approval for pets and minor changes to a property. Advocacy groups said the package fell short because no-grounds evictions remained lawful and no rent stabilisation was included. PIPA and some landlords argued the changes gave existing owners little reason to stay in the market.
