Tenancy Database (Blacklist) Listing Dispute
Listed, or warned you will be listed, on a tenancy database like TICA, NTD or TRA? A bad listing can block every rental you apply for, for up to three years. For $49 we draft a formal demand to the agent or landlord (and the database operator) to remove or amend a listing that is unlawful, inaccurate or out of date — built from your answers, citing your state's residential tenancy database rules and your right to apply to the tribunal to have it removed or amended.

What we'll ask you
Plain-English questions, one at a time. No legal knowledge needed — if you don't know an answer exactly, your best estimate is fine.
- What is your situation?
- Which database is involved, if you know? (Common ones are TICA, NTD / National Tenancy Database, and Trading Reference Australia / TRA.) If you are not sure, just say so.
- Who listed you, or is threatening to? The agency or landlord's name as it appears on your tenancy agreement or their letters.
- Tell me what happened at the end of the tenancy — why they say they listed you (or will), what you dispute about it, and anything you have already said to them.
- What was the rental address, and when did the tenancy start and end?
- Before listing you, did the agent or landlord give you written notice that they intended to list you, and a chance to respond or pay?
- What does the listing say, and what is wrong with it? (For example: an amount you do not owe, a figure that is too high, it is out of date, it was logged before the tenancy ended, or it is simply not true.)
- Was there ever a tribunal or court order against you about this tenancy (for example an order to pay money or for possession)?
- Does the amount they say you owe come to more than the bond you paid?optional
- What do you want the letter to ask for?
- Do you have the agent's or landlord's email? If so we can send the letter straight to them once you approve it.optional
