Compulsory Registration for all Fiji Landlords

Fiji Commerce Commission CEO Joel Abraham says they are planning to have a compulsory registration of landlords in the proposed Landlords and Tenants Act.

As the second phase of the public consultations on the proposed act starts in the Western Division from today, Abraham says compulsory registration will help them deal with complaints regarding tenants and landlords.

Abraham is urging members of the public to attend these consultations and voice their concerns.

He had earlier said that some of the issues being brought to them included illegal increase in rent, unfair terms and conditions in a tenancy agreement, rental bond, refund of bond and disclosure of information by landlords and tenants when starting the tenancy.
