    Haven't read it all but cutting out snail mail has to be an improvement!
    Downside? Sounds like the same system just more efficient. Each party does their thing online rather than paperwork. This internet thing is really catching on! :D

    Its supposed to be first option after Jan 2017

    Property agents & self-managing landlords must register by 30 January 2017

    From 30 January 2017, property agents and self-managing landlords must be registered with Rental Bonds Online. Agents and landlords must also offer the service to new tenants as the first option for lodgement of their bond. More information is available on the Rental Bonds Online (RBO) changes to residential tenancy lawswebpage.

    I asked around to a few friends who are renting and nobody had been offered this option...I wonder why agents aren't jumping on board in NSW? Surely it is easier??
