1. First property There are a few issues that have arisen with Clyde's tenant Tom. Tom and his friends have been very noisy, playing music at very late hours and there have been complaints from other apartment occupiers. One neighbour (who is an owner) has threatened to move out and bring proceedings against him to pay for moving costs and rent. Clyde thinks that is unfair as he is not making the noise. His real estate friend told him about a recent case where a person had to pay money because of a noisy tenant. This information has Clyde really concerned. Tang v Fossaert (Owners Corporations) [2022] VCAT 323. Research scope Clyde wants you to review the case and provide a summary so he can understand: 1. if he might be responsible for Tom and his friends' actions; 2. whether there is anything he needs to do as the landlord or owner; and 3. whether a neighbour really can make a claim for their moving costs and rent and if so, in what circumstances would he be liable
