Family and Granny flat agreements

Many older Australians enter into family agreements or granny flat arrangements to secure housing and support as they age. While these agreements can provide security and strengthen family connections, they also come with legal and financial risks if not properly documented.

This session will explore the key considerations when entering a granny flat or family agreement, including property rights, financial contributions, implications, and what happens if circumstances change. Learn how to protect yourself with a written agreement and avoid potential disputes down the track.

Whether you’re an older person, family member, or support worker, this session will provide essential information to ensure these arrangements are fair, clear, and legally sound.
