The Residential Tenancies Amendment Act 2024 will now make it harder for landlords to refuse tenant pet requests without a good reason, but an extra to-week bond may be requested.
Criticism has arisen from landlords who don't want to allow pets, and others who concerned about the lack of clarity on what is considered 'reasonable'.
But, David Seymour told Matt and Tyler that he is not concerned about tenant behaviour in regard to the new rules.
"People that are animal lovers are generally good to humans as well, so you might be opening up, a whole market of really great tenants," Seymour said.
