Share House Support Hub · Lodgers

Living in one of our share houses?

A private hub for current lodgers in Local Property Partners managed share houses. Maintenance, confidential reporting, lease renewals and vacate notices in one place. Everything you submit comes straight to Daria.

Everyday requests

Something needs looking at?

For maintenance or anything else you'd like to raise directly. We aim to respond within one business day.

Use this for anything that needs attention in the property. The form below walks you through a few quick questions, triages urgency, and routes the job to the right trade. For genuine emergencies (no hot water, water leak, locked out, security risk), call 0422 238 434 directly.

For anything that doesn't fit the other forms. Questions about your agreement, the property, your housemates, or anything else.

Moving on, or extending

Staying longer, or moving out?

Lodging agreements work differently to a standard tenancy. Notice periods and renewal terms are set by your individual agreement, not by the Residential Tenancies Act. Use the forms below and we'll confirm what applies to your house in writing.

If your agreement is coming up, this is the easiest way to tell us you'd like to renew. We'll confirm the new period in writing and let you know if there's any rent change.

Your name

Property address

Room (if applicable)

How long would you like to extend for?

Anything else? optional

✓

Renewal request received

Notice periods are set by your individual lodging agreement. Submit this form and we'll confirm your last day, the exit inspection process, and your bond return.

✓

Vacate notice received

Know someone who'd fit?

Suggest a new housemate.

Existing housemates often know who would and wouldn't fit the house. If a room is coming up and you have someone in mind, send their details through. We'll still run our full screening process, but a personal recommendation goes a long way.

This is a referral, not a screening shortcut. Every applicant still goes through the full process (identity, income, references, NTD database checks, household-fit assessment). What it does is get them on our radar early.

Confidential reporting.

Living in a share house works when small things get raised early. The three forms below are for damage, disputes and suggestions you'd rather not bring up directly with your housemates.

Your name and email are optional. Most people leave them blank, some include them so we can follow up with the right context. Either way, we don't share who reported what with other lodgers in the house.

Confidential forms

Three ways to flag something quietly.

Damage you've noticed, tension between housemates, or an idea to improve how the house runs. All three forms are confidential and your identity is optional.

For damage to the property that you've seen or know about. The more we know early, the easier it is to handle fairly.

Quick reference

House essentials.

The things lodgers ask most. Tap to expand. If your question isn't here, use the general contact form above.

Utilities arrangements vary house by house. Some houses include all utilities in the rent up to a weekly cap per occupant with excess split evenly. Others bill utilities separately, split across the household when the invoices arrive. Your individual lodging agreement sets out exactly how it works for your house. If you're not sure or want to double-check, use the general contact form above and we'll confirm in writing.

Cleaning arrangements vary house by house. Some houses include a weekly professional clean of common areas (kitchen, shared bathrooms, living room, laundry) in the rent. Others leave cleaning to the household. Your individual lodging agreement confirms which model applies. Where cleaning is included, your room remains your responsibility, and the cleaner needs the common areas tidy enough to clean (dishes done, surfaces clear) for the visit to be productive.

Urgent means there's a real safety risk or essential service is out. Examples: no hot water, no power, a major water leak, broken locks, a security risk, sewerage backing up, or risk of injury. These get actioned the same day or within 24 hours where possible. Non-urgent items (a sticky door, a worn tap, a slow drain) get scheduled with the right trade and addressed in due course. If in doubt, submit the maintenance form and mark it urgent. We'd rather be told and stand it down than miss something real.

Lodging agreements aren't covered by the Residential Tenancies Act, so the 21-day, 30-day, and 60-day notice periods you may have seen for standard tenancies don't apply. The required notice period is set by your individual lodging agreement, which is the authoritative document. Submit the vacate form above and we'll confirm your last day, walk you through the exit inspection, and process your bond return.

Most disputes resolve quietly once we know about them. Our usual order: a general house reminder if something's drifting, a private conversation if needed, and direct intervention only if things are not improving. Where someone is genuinely disrupting the household, lodging agreements give us more flexibility than a standard tenancy to move someone on, on reasonable notice. We don't reveal who raised a concern when we follow up. The confidential reporting forms above are the right starting point.

Occasional overnight guests are fine. Extended stays (regularly more than 2 to 3 nights per week, or anything that starts to feel like an additional housemate) aren't permitted under your lodging agreement without prior agreement, because it changes the dynamic, the utilities split, and in some councils the lodging classification. If you're not sure where a guest situation sits, ask via the general contact form. Better to check than guess.

Small, removable things (your own bedding, posters with command strips, a rug, a desk lamp) are absolutely fine. Anything that requires holes in the wall, paint, removed fixtures, or alters the room needs written approval first. Some changes are easy yeses, some aren't possible. Ask via the maintenance form and we'll give you a clear answer.

This support hub is for current lodgers in share houses managed by Local Property Partners under lodging agreements. Lodging agreements sit outside the Residential Tenancies Act 1987 (WA). Specific terms (notice periods, rent review timing, access rules, and dispute resolution) are set by your individual lodging agreement, which is the authoritative document for your tenancy. This page provides general information only and does not vary your agreement. If anything here appears to conflict with your written agreement, your agreement prevails. The confidential reporting forms above are reviewed by Daria personally; we do not share who reported what with other lodgers in the house. For anything urgent, please call or text directly on 0422 238 434.
