Preetam Maid raised concerns after Click Property Management, the agency he rents through, requested he pays extra rent after he moves out. As per the contract, Mr Maid paid Click Property Management administrative fees of one week's rent plus GST and a re-advertising fee plus GST. However, the property manager is demanding an extra three days' rent so it can complete a move-out inspection and clean. Click Property Management managing director Andrea Elliot said the extra three days' rent meant the owner would not suffer any loss.
