Pets, Property and the Reforma Advantage

From 1 December, the new pet rules change how every landlord must think about tenancies. Saying “no pets” is no longer the easy default. It is now about making smart, informed choices that balance compliance, tenant satisfaction, and long-term property value.

This session brings you the essentials in plain English, plus the Reforma edge: how Harcourts Reforma is adapting to help landlords not just survive but win under the new framework.

What you will learn

• Rules at a glance: the new requirements every landlord must know

• Responding to requests: timeframes and best practice when a tenant asks to bring in a pet

• Pet bonds explained: how they work, when they apply, and how to structure them correctly

• Rights and responsibilities: what tenants owe, and where landlords stand firm

• Refusals and conditions: legitimate reasons to say no, or say yes with safeguards

• Exemptions: the special case of disability dogs and how they fit under the rules

• Impact on your business: from rent-setting to insurance, fixtures, maintenance and repairs, where costs shift and where opportunities lie

• The Reforma advantage: why Reforma is ahead of the curve, how the team will keep investors protected, and how landlords can partner with them for the best outcomes
