The Federal Government has mandated a Code of Conduct to standardise commercial tenancy arrangements affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Code will apply to landlords or tenants with a turnover of less than $50 million and who meet the criteria for the Government’s JobKeeper program.
LegalVision has created this free Rent Relief Letter to Landlords Template to help you through negotiations with your landlord in light of the new Code of Conduct.
The template can includes a series of easy fill-in-the-blank fields allowing you to customise the letter to your circumstances.
The template sets out:
- how the Mandatory Code of Conduct applies
- the request for rent relief in the form of a waiver and deferral of rent
- the proposed date when the rent relief should start and end
