Have to file for urgent tribunal hearing and get an order to release bond back to you, otherwise you can not get the bond.

Also you can ask for any outstanding amount.

Surely tenant will not willingly pay, you then cAn ask for either bank order or sherif order.

If you know where tenant banks, you take bank order and bank will deduct this amount without even asking the account owner, or if you know where tenant has moved, you can use sherif order for shirt if to go around and take goods worth owed amount.

From memory, do not hold me to it, urgent tribunal application is around $200

There is not, generally speaking, 'Australian Law' when it comes to Property matters.

Laws are State based.

Who holds the Bond?

Have you used an Agent?

What state is the property in?

It maybe remiss of you if you are domiciled overseas and not have employed an agent.

Apologies, but just saying like.
