QCAT - do you understand the system?

QCAT (Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal) is where tenancy disputes are heard for either urgent or non urgent matters.

Urgent and Non Urgent Matters are legally defined under sections 415 and 416 of the RTRA Act (Qld).

Today's licensee and property managers should have sound understanding of QCAT and procedures including the many documents that have to be used in matters.

Do you understand the following?

* What form to use for urgent or non urgent applications and how to complete them?
* How to use a QCAT Form 8 - Counter Application?
* What is an urgent and non urgent application?
* What are the time frames for lodging matters?
* Do you understand the precedent decisions?
* Do you know how to make an appeal on behalf of your lessor client?
* How are QCAT matters enforced?
* All hearings are recorded, how do you obtain a copy of the hearing?

Real Estate Excellence is holding a QCAT Training session on 6th June. Private training services face to face or telephone training services are also available.

A Training CD is also an option to train in your own time in your agency.
