Abstract
Disrupted – the second report commissioned by CHOICE, National Shelter, and The National Association of Tenant Organisations (NATO) – delves into the issues facing Australians who rent. It reveals three problems that people who rent are facing across the nation, with many:
- living in poor quality homes afraid to request repairs;
- on insecure tenancies; and
- struggling with rental affordability and cost of living pressures
