Part 8 - Supported Standard Contracts

Section 144 – Mobility

348.Under this section, a supported standard contract may include a term about ‘mobility’. This enables a landlord to relocate a contract-holder to a different dwelling within the same building without the need to end one contract and make another. This is designed to enable the landlord to, for example, locate a contract-holder away from another resident to avoid disputes.
