South Australia’s 2024 Tenancy Law Changes: What Landlords Need to Know

On 1st July 2024, South Australia implemented significant tenancy law changes designed to strengthen tenant protections. Key updates include:

• Stronger tenant rights: Tenants can now request property modifications with greater ease.
• Rental increase regulations: Tighter controls on when and how rents can be raised.
• Extended eviction notice periods: Landlords must provide more notice before evicting tenants.

How Do These Changes Affect Landlords?

For landlords, these reforms mean adapting to new responsibilities, including potential increased costs and longer rental agreements, which could impact profitability. Successful management under these new laws requires strategic planning and maintaining positive tenant relationships.

Adelaide’s Anzac Highway is continuing to undergo a major transformation, driven by a surge in infill residential developments. Modern apartment complexes and townhouses are emerging, particularly in sought-after areas like Plympton and Keswick, providing new housing options conveniently located near both the CBD and the beach. These developments prioritize sustainability and modern design, making them attractive to a diverse demographic.

Looking ahead, several significant projects are in the pipeline. Notably, a mixed-use development near Kurralta Park will feature residential units, retail spaces, and public amenities, further enhancing the area’s appeal. Local councils are also investing in improving green spaces and pedestrian pathways to boost liveability.

While these developments are expected to drive economic growth, they also present challenges such as traffic management and infrastructure pressure. The ongoing transformation of Anzac Highway exemplifies Adelaide’s urban growth, striking a balance between modern needs and the preservation of historical character.

The Anzac Highway corridor has long been integral to Adelaide’s history, serving as a vital connection between the seaside and the city. This tradition continues with the introduction of tastefully designed, medium-density developments that respect the area’s heritage.

Looking to the future, Torrens Road is poised to follow a similar trajectory. We have substantial interest from various groups keen to participate in this area’s growth. If you have properties in the Torrens Road area, now is the perfect time to get involved and contribute to its evolving landscape. Call me anytime to discuss.
