The body corporate rules also apply to a commercial tenant.

Commercial tenants in a unit title complex must comply with:

  • the Unit Titles Act 2010
  • the Property Law Act 2007
  • common law
  • other general laws

Most commercial leases may include principal and accessory units. You can only lease accessory units if you lease a principal unit. The body corporate can also lease parts of the common property.

We recommend getting legal advice if you want to lease part of a unit title complex. 

Resolving issues 

All tenants must obey the body corporate rules. If a tenant has an issue they should talk to their landlord first.

If the body corporate has an issue with a tenant, they should also talk to the landlord/unit owner first.
