QCAT Case - tenant claim of $370 594.19

Upon my daily reading of QCAT decisions and appeals published, the strangest one by far has been found. Multi Stock Pty Ltd and Anor v Willmore and Anor [2012] QCAT 162 involves a claim made by the agents on behalf of the lessor for $10475.13 for rent, damages, cleaning and chemicals for the pool.

The tenant counter claimed first at $25 000 then up to an amazing amount of $370 594.16!
Much of this claim centred around mould issues.

The decision handed down was for the tenants to pay the lessor $5650.


This case is a recommended read and very detailed in findings. Members can find the case at the Member drop box site (search mould $5650) or email Stacey Holt direct to receive via email.
