What does this tool do?
If you have been affected by COVID-19, Dear Landlord can help you to negotiate a rent reduction agreement with your landlord, as well as provide other important tips to avoid eviction.
Dear Landlord asks you a series of questions and based on your answers, determines a course of action to help you to stay in your home.
It can help you draft a letter to your landlord, populate an application for VCAT, or draft a rent reduction agreement to lodge with Consumer Affairs Victoria. Depending on where you are in the process, it can even provide helpful tips for mediation or the VCAT process.
