About
The Private Tenancy Support Service (PTSS) offers individual case management to help people keep their housing stable and secure.
We work with people who are experiencing tenancy issues, such as rental arrears or difficulties meeting lease conditions, to find practical solutions.
PTSS supports people by linking them with relevant services, including financial counselling and legal advice. When a tenancy can no longer be sustained, we also help people explore alternative housing options. Our focus is on building skills and connecting people to supports that promote long-term housing stability.
Available in the Southwest Metro (Fremantle to Rockingham).
