How to end an agreement in SDA

The agreement can end when:

• the provider and resident agree in writing to end the agreement – this is called mutual agreement
• the resident gives the provider a notice of intention to vacate
• the provider gives the resident a notice to vacate. There are rules about when you can do this under the Residential Tenancies Act
• the resident gives the provider a notice of intention to terminate because the provider did not give them the information statement
• a VCAT order says the resident has abandoned the property
• the property is no longer enrolled as an SDA dwelling
• a VCAT order says the agreement has ended
• the provider gets a possession order from VCAT saying the resident must move out.
