Rental Compliance, Managed and Guaranteed
Victorian rental laws have changed. From 2025, rental properties must meet minimum standards before advertising and remain compliant throughout the tenancy.
MRE manages rental compliance through a structured process and backs it with the MRE Rental Ready Guarantee™.

Designed for Melbourne Landlords
This service is offered to rental property owners in Melbourne and surrounding suburbs who want clarity, reduced exposure, and professional oversight.
THE PROBLEM
Non-compliant rental properties can attract penalties exceeding:
- $12,000 for individuals
- $61,000 for companies
Compliance is no longer a once-off task. It requires ongoing inspection, documentation and follow-up.
The solution is the MRE Rental Ready Guarantee™
If MRE:
- Inspects your property
- Confirms compliance with Victorian minimum standards
- Documents that compliance in our reporting
and a fine is issued for a standard we have confirmed as compliant, MRE will pay that fine on your behalf.

Terms and conditions
OWNER REQUIREMENTS
To keep the guarantee active, owners must:
- Have their property managed by MRE
- Approve recommended works within advised timeframes
- Fund required rectification
- Allow trade access
- Notify MRE of independent works so compliance can be reassessed
- If works are declined or delayed, the guarantee does not apply to those items.
SCOPE OF COVER
The guarantee applies only where MRE has confirmed and recorded compliance.
It does not cover:
- Owner decisions not to proceed with recommended works
- Issues arising after tenancy commencement that could not be identified
- Standards outside Victorian minimum requirements
MRE will of course continue to represent you and work to achieve optimal outcomes in any such instances, as detailed in our valid Managing Authority.
