The housing market is stacked in favour of landlords and investors who profit at our expense.
Our best defence is getting organised.
That's what tenants' unions do. We're a democratic organisation run by and for tenants, fighting for the right to safe, affordable, and stable housing for all.
We organise against landlord harassment, evictions, rising rents, and unfair real estate practices. We stand in solidarity with each other, leveraging the strength of numbers to defend and enforce our right to dignified housing, and to challenge and disrupt this unjust housing system.
We can support each other, stand up to exploitative landlords and agents, and win better housing for all of us. Join forces with fellow tenants and actively organise to demand fair treatment and better living conditions. Don't wait for change - create it!
The South-East Queensland Union of Renters (SEQUR) is a diverse, member-led organisation fighting for the interests of tenants.
Our mission is to take charge of our lives and our homes by organising into a union that we control and operate. Tenants deserve genuine rights. Rights are never bestowed from above; you need a union that has the ability to enforce them.
Landlords will do everything in their power to keep us divided and powerless. When we stand together, we keep each other safe.
Joining SEQUR is about harnessing our collective strength to overcome the odds stacked against us. In a system where landlords have wealth, the courts, and politicians on their side, we still have a greater power in each other.
Ready to take charge of your living situation and fight for your rights? Join forces with fellow tenants and actively organise to demand fair treatment and better living conditions. Don't wait for change - create it!
SEQUR operates on principles of direct democracy and participation. If you're a local renter (or currently homeless), you're eligible for full membership. Let us know about your tenancy issues, and we'll provide support. Homeowners can also show solidarity by joining as non-voting members.
