I have a unit at Currumbin on the Gold Coast. It’s been permanently rented through the onsite manager for 20 years. Can I rent the unit myself for short-term holiday rental? Are there laws stopping me? Do I need to notify the body corporate?

Whether a lot can be let out for short term letting depends on the local council requirements.

Whether a lot can be let out for short term letting depends on the local council's requirements. You should confirm this with town planning advice or by asking the council.

The body corporate cannot impose their own rules that restrict the type of letting but may have separate requirements in relation to notifying the body corporate of who the occupiers of a lot are. To confirm this, you should check the by-laws.
