- Here's my 5-point checklist if you find mould in your leased property. This is a common problem and this checklist should help you navigate the issues. The main thing is to carefully document the issues and ensure you take lots of photos. If you are in Victoria, Australia you are protected under the Residential Tenancies Amendment Act 2018.
Also, the Residential Tenancies Regulations 2021 (S.R. No. 3/2021) shifts the onus of disclosure onto the rental provider to disclose to the tenant if in the last 3 years there has been a repair notice relating to damp or mould in the premises caused by or related to the building structure. In addition, there are new minimum rental standards where each room in the rented premises must be free from mould and damp caused by or related to the building structure. Changes to Consumer Affairs Victoria, also from 2021 will determine who is responsible for the mould by assessing if the tenant contributed to the problem or if the landlord may have allowed a problem with the property to contribute towards mould. Tenants will need to support their request for urgent repairs by providing proof that the mould is dangerous and/or causing a health issue.
Read an actual VCAT determination around water damage and mould in residential tenancy. I'd suggest a careful reading of this determination:
Cooper v Yang (Residential Tenancies) [2023] VCAT 543 (19 May 2023). The link is here: www.austlii.ed...
This is very important. I don't know why it is not spoken of more.
In the USA conditions can be very horrible and left unaddressed. Trying to is like entering a nightmare.
GREAT INFORMATION !!!I’m mold injured, but it wouldn’t apply to me. I’m in the States, been fighting this for 2 years… can’t go it anymore.😔
Doctor Jones,
Have you heard of multiple sclerosis epidemics in the Faroe Islands? Also Berberine as a potential treatment for MS. I would love an Australian doctor to look into these studies and share their opinion.
I started looking into causes and treatments for MS when my partner was diagnosed 2 years ago. It appears there are numerous triggers including fungal, viral (JCV) and chemical exposure. An MS support group on FB has also had numerous people come forward who were diagnosed with MS soon after a recent mandated concoction. My partner went to hospital with a migraine. Had never had a migraine in his life. A CT scan was done and he was told to go home and take Panadol and if it persisted see his doctor in 3 days. No discharge papers given. Headache was gone in 3 days but I told him to see a GP because something wasn’t right. The doctor requested another CT scan and obvious brain lesions were found. The GP was amazed the hospital had ignored the lesions, sent him home and had not notified anyone. This is a common occurrence the past 2 years. It’s happened to too many people across all states of Australia. Very upsetting to see such disturbing and reckless behaviour in the medical profession.
