LANDLORD GUIDE
This APOA guide is general community education for landlords. It is not legal, financial, or tax advice. Please check current state rules and seek qualified advice for your own situation.
Routine inspections help landlords understand maintenance issues, property condition, possible damage, and unusual use of the property.
Landlords or agents must provide proper written notice before entry and should keep inspection records.
Inspection frequency is regulated by state law. The document notes examples such as Victoria once every six months, and NSW and Queensland once every three months.
