If you rent your home and it was damaged by flooding, storm or bushfire, you should contact your agent or landlord immediately.
If the home is wholly or partially uninhabitable because of damage you can either:
give notice that you wish to end the tenancy
maintain the tenancy and make a written agreement with your landlord to waive the rent while the property is uninhabitable.
