Tasmania end-of-lease evidence
Consumer, Building and Occupational Services explains condition reports for Tasmanian rentals, and MyBond is where bond claims and evidence are handled.
What the official pages say
- If a bond is required, the owner gives the tenant two signed copies of a condition report at or before the start of the tenancy. The tenant signs one copy, notes agreement or disagreement, and returns it within two days.
- CBOS says clear, dated photographs are an acceptable form of condition report, and that it is preferable to keep both a written report and photographs. A tenant who is not given a report can write their own and take photos.
- In a bond dispute, evidence uploaded to MyBond can include the ingoing and outgoing condition reports and photographs. All Tasmanian rental bonds are managed through MyBond.

Where BondFile fits
Use it while you still have the keys. Photograph each room, mark clean / undamaged / working, and download the PDF. Attach it to the official form or send it with a bond dispute. It does not sign the form for you, and it does not decide fair wear and tear. Reports, photos, and generated PDFs are deleted automatically 24 months after the report is created, so a move-in record is still there at the end of a 12-month lease.
