NSW rental repair dispute: should I stop paying rent until it is fixed?

Jez Smith4 October 2026

No. NSW Government specifically warns tenants not to stop paying rent because repairs have not been completed. A repair dispute can instead be taken through NSW Fair Trading and, if unresolved, NCAT. Official source: NSW Government. Guide: https://getinstantlaw.com/landlord-tenant
