FAQ

Is the 2-year Compliance Plan suitable for me?

As a rental provider (landlord), you are legally responsible for making sure the mandatory safety checks are completed at your property. To assist owners in meeting their obligations under the Residential Tenancy Act (Vic), the Safety Compliance Plan provides peace of mind and great value. 

Importantly, the Compliance Plan not only covers the periodic smoke alarm, gas and electrical checks, but has a wide range of inclusions. This includes free callouts and parts for issues with checked items. This can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars in expensive costs.

Your renters have rights around urgent repairs—so know that we’re there when you need us, and that you won’t be hit with expensive call out fees that other providers charge. 

Our plan lets you divide the compliance costs into two equal payments over two years. We do this as landlords find it simpler if the cost is consistent year on year, even if services are due at different times. You’ll make the first payment just before the next safety check, with the second payment due a year later.

Some companies do once-off safety checks with no additional benefits, which can leave you out of pocket with additional callouts and parts. 

Our plan provides extended and ongoing protection. Inclusions include any faults on checked items, such as pilot light relights and beeping smoke alarms—and replacement parts on checked items such as standard light switches, power points, safety switches and thermocouples.

Yes, all Compliance Plans renew automatically every two years.

Yes, if you terminate your plan before making the second payment, you’ll need to pay any remaining balance in line with our Cancellation Policy.

The annual Compliance Plan costs will be paid for by your property manager and be deducted from your rent.

We aim to perform safety checks regularly to keep your property compliant within the Residential Tenancies Act regulations. This includes annual smoke alarm checks, with electrical and gas safety checks every two years. For first-time checks, we’ll schedule them as soon as possible.
