The Canberra couple were awarded $1,500 in non-economic damages after a real estate agent entered their bedroom while the wife was in bed asleep with her infant son.
A Canberra couple has been awarded $1,500 in damages by the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal after the woman was woken by a real estate agent conducting an inspection in her bedroom.
The agent said he knocked on the door and called out after using a key to gain access to the property, which the tenants disputed.
The tribunal found the incident constituted trespass, and any consent given to continue the inspection was gained under duress.
