Why Compliance Matters

Don’t Risk Fines, Lost Tenants or Council Intervention

Most Rooming Houses in Victoria fall short of at least one compliance requirement — and many owners don’t even realise it!

Whether you’re an experienced operator or setting up your first Rooming House, our audit identifies gaps before they become costly problems.

  • Spot potential breaches early

  • Understand your obligations as a Rooming House Operator

  • Be ready for council and Consumer Affairs inspections

  • Avoid costly non-compliance fines

  • Protect your investment and your tenants!

FAQs

  • It’s a professional assessment of your Rooming House to check whether it aligns with Victorian legislative, safety and amenity standards. We review room sizes, facilities, planning permit status, and key compliance requirements under the Residential Tenancies Act and local council regulations.
    Our aim is to help you identify risks early so you can operate safely, legally and profitably.

  • No. The audit is an advisory service only — it highlights any areas that may be non-compliant or need attention, based on the information provided and/or inspected.


    While we provide expert guidance, we do not guarantee legal compliance and recommend all clients seek independent legal or building regulatory advice before making any significant changes.

    • A detailed written compliance report

    • A visual checklist (pass/fail format)

    • 30-minute consultation with a Rooming House specialist

    • Optional on-site inspection (Metro Melbourne only)
      We assess your property against known Victorian minimum standards and local council requirements relevant to Rooming Houses.

    • Building permits or certification

    • Legal advice or town planning reports

    • Structural assessments or engineering reports

    • Electrical or plumbing compliance certification
      Our audit is a high-level advisory review, designed to inform your next steps — not replace the role of a registered builder, lawyer, or town planner.

  • Yes. Council registration doesn't guarantee you're meeting all ongoing minimum standards or rental laws. Properties often fall out of compliance over time due to tenant wear and tear, minor modifications, or updated legislation.


    Our audit helps you stay ahead of inspections and avoid fines or forced upgrades.

  • Yes — we offer follow-up services such as:

    • Referrals to trusted trades and contractors

    • Documentation guidance for council or VCGLR matters

    • Project coordination for upgrades or compliance fixes
      However, these are offered as optional extras after the audit and quoted separately.

  • Not always. Many properties can be reviewed through a desktop audit using floor plans, photos, and relevant documentation.
    However, we recommend an on-site inspection if:

    • You’ve never had a compliance review

    • You’re unsure about the property’s layout

    • You’ve recently completed major upgrades or DIY works

    We’ll help you decide what’s best during the intake process.
