 Moving house can be a stressful time with a lot of tasks to complete, but there's one job that some Queenslanders are overlooking, costing themselves big dollars. Rental bonds are being left unclaimed with millions sitting there waiting for their rightful owner. For most renters, getting back a bond is high on the moving to-do list. I reckon 85% of people do get their bond back. Property manager Amber Camps concedes the process can take time. The forms do take a little bit to fill out and you've got to follow the whole process of it all and that kind of thing. It can drag on sometimes. And clearly can become all too much for some. The RTA currently has over $15 million in unclaimed bonds. The unclaimed bonds that we currently hold range in value from $0.50 to $10,000. The Rental Tenancies Authority holds bond money during a lease. Welcome to the RTA. My name is Matt. How can I help you? But when tenants never ask for it back, that's where it stays. So many houses are really stressful and when people do move house, it's probably not on the forefront of their mind to claim the bond. The other thing is actually giving the RTA incorrect details and that makes it really hard to contact you. The good news is you can get your money back by proving identity and providing details of your lease. Oh, you have an unclaimed bond? OK, can I scratch some details and I'll check that for you, please? If you've been out of the rental game for some time and you think you might have forgotten to collect some cash but you're worried it's been too long, don't be. There is no time limit for tracking down unclaimed bond money. There is no time frame and in fact we actually have a bond here that's been held for 20 years. If you think you might have unclaimed bond, contact the RTA on 1300 363 11. We've got $15 million sitting here and we want to give it back to you. Joel Dry, 9 News.
