91 Charles Street, Lilyfield NSW 2040 / Laing Simmons Five Dock Used To Lure Prospects / Charles Caldareri Landlord

Under the Residential Tenancies Act 2010, tenants have a legal right to reasonable peace, comfort, and privacy. 

91 Charles Street, Lilyfield NSW 2040 is once again available to unsuspecting targets to rent.

Neighbouring residents and the previous occupants who have leased the property since 2020, came forward in 2024, 2025, 2026 to advise new occupants from October 2024 that what they began enduring from landlord and their cohorts at Laing Simmons Real Estate, Five Dock, is similar and often the same as what they endured during their occupancies.

The property is advertised for lease by Laing Simmons Real Estate, Five Dock, but once you have been caught in a lease agreement, they advise that they cannot assist tenants with the torturously dishonest and abusive landlord, Charles Caldareri, because they do not 'manage' the property.

Laing Simmons Real Estate, Five Dock, were reported to Leanne Pilkington - CEO, Laing Simmons Corporation - in 2024. Leanne had no impact or influence over her deranged and uncivilised franchisee and his son.

If you press the landlord for urgent repairs, you will be met with dismissive intimidation, and relentlessly badgered with demands that he is an elderly retiree with no funds to action repairs - repairs that have been urgent since at least 2020 while he took a minimum $820 per week in rent since 2023 and minimum $720 per week approximately, prior to this, while NOT providing non-leaking roofs nor air conditioning and not rectifying the many negative issues he concealed through distraction and lies when walking prospective tenants/targets through the property.

The landlord also owns 89 Charles Street, Lilyfield and allegedly, 34 Melbourne Street, Concord.

Property History and Development

According to public records from a New South Wales Local Planning Panel meeting, Mr. Caldareri addressed the panel regarding a Development Application (DA2018/0038) for the site. The proposal involved the demolition of a heritage-listed dwelling and the construction of an attached dual-occupancy residential building on the property.'

If you find 'miscarriage of justice' when presenting a matter to NCAT, NSW Attorney General is a point of contact for address. The NSW Attorney General honoured Caldareri for 50+ years serving as a Justice of the Peace - which is no recommendation of good character.

If you are willing to forfeit a favourable tenant reference once you vacate, then go ahead and lodge a claim with NCAT to ensure address/repair/replacement of:

• the leaking dwelling and dwelling porch roofs to stop rainwater leaking into the dwelling, over the undercover back porch space, the laundry and into the back porch light that is hanging off the wall;

• the dilapidated and malfunctioning ducted air conditioning has the missing parts reinstalled and the external unit serviced;

• the rotten cupboard under the kitchen sink, exposed to external wall, is repaired so you can use the cupboards and drawers without contents going mouldy - and of course to eliminate the dank, mould smell when you open the cupboard doors;

• the range hood over the stove;

• the slide and locks of the aluminium windows;

• front screen door pump that does not hold the door open;

• back screen door that is not fitted properly and drags over the stone step, plus the handle and latch;

• the collapsing back porch roof frame;

• the dilapidated and dangerously unstable clothesline is removed from the property;

• the gutters have leaf guard installed to stop them filling with debris within a week or so, putting pressure on the poorly installed guttering and causing a waterfall around the dwelling and flooding the back courtyard when it rains;

• the badly installed downpipe flooding the back courtyard up to the porch stairs - destroying the turf installed by tenant at tenant's expense in 2024 - after digging up the weed-filled dirt-patch, laying soil and the turf - also having to nurture the sparce amount of grass growing through the weed-filled dirt patch in the front courtyard and plucking the weeks rather than using poison because the area is filled with lizards, frogs, and wildlife;

• having the gaps between the SUB-FLOOR BOARDS sealed because the gaps open to the under-house space - the landlord knowingly falsely claiming that the property has timber flooring when sub-floorboard are not 'flooring' - the two inch gaps under the doors due to the sub-flooring being what you are walking on;

• back courtyard gate is secured with a decent latch to stop it blowing open in the wind & damaging tenants and neighbours' vehicles and harming passers-by;

• the rusted above-ground metal garden bed frame that could not hold up to the scorching Summer heat while sitting in full sunshine;

• the rotten side gate that has not been touched in two years because it seems like it will fall apart;

• the vanity sink non working fixed plug;

• watch out for blocked drains - the landlord leaves tenants for days to attend to sewage spewing out of the drain at the back door, until his plumber decides when he wants to attend - who stops and starts as he pleases, rather that just get on and finish the task - same with the very unhandy handy person who the landlord falsely claims is a 'roofer', 'plumber', window repairer, etc etc when he is not efficient in any way.

WHATCH OUT WHEN THE LANDLORD WALKS YOU THROUGH THE PROPERTY DISTRACTING AND HURRYING YOU AS HE LIES ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE PROPERTY, ITS AMENITIES AND THE WORKING ORDER OF AMENITIES.

If they show you through the dwelling and claim that the roller blind in the front room is good quality - don't believe that either. Previous tenants confirmed that they didn't use is because it does not roll property and if you adjust it, the whole thing falls to the floor.

The doors to each room are not the right size for the doorways, so they make noise banging in the slightest breeze. The door handles are dilapidated and do hold the door closed at all times.

There has been some insulation installed in the ceiling cavity in 2024, but it has gotten wet since installation because the landlord refuses to pay costs to stop the roof leaking.

The insulation only sometimes prevents the temperature inside the dwelling being approximately two degrees less smouldering hot than the temperature outside in full sunlight. The front room is unbearable in temperatures over 24 degrees - it seems there is a variation in the ceiling cavity height or possibly the insulation was not installed in that section.

If you find the air conditioning works - don't blink because it will shut down. Daikin Australia's technician hired by tenants to investigate and proven the landlord a deliberate and abusive liar, advised that the ducting has not been installed properly or it's been dismantled by the original installers, ACG, or the actors who the landlord pay to attend but not complete tasks in an efficient manner because that costs actual funds.

You get no sunshine in the rear courtyard during Winter, then by November you're in full sunshine from Sun-up to Sun-down - absolutely unbearable in a low ceiling dwelling with a low pitched roof.

You will find is that Joseph Rupolo and his son, Alexander Rupolo, of Laing Simmons Real Estate, Five Dock, are 'like' depraved cohorts of the landlord, rather that those acting in accordance with Government legislation in any way whatsoever - they and the landlord show deranged amusement in the abuse they deliver to tenants - stealing funds from tenants by not providing basic amenities nor the amenities they claim to be available to enable prospects to make informed decisions about whether or not they are willing to lease at the determined OVERPRICED rent.

When you realise the impact of the landlord telling each tenant to remove picture hooks and patch and paint before they vacate - unpresentable when the light catches all the non-matching paint colour patches throughout the dwelling.

THE ROTTEN AND BROKEN TILES AROUND THE SINK ALSO EXPOSED TO THE DAMP WALL BEHIND, IS ENOUGH TO PREVENT ANYONE - EVEN DESPERATE RENTAL SEEKERS - TO TAKE UP OCCUPANCY. IMAGINE THE MENTALITY OF THE LANDLORD DISTRACTING & LYING & HIDING ALL OF THE ANACCEPTABLE ELEMENTS OF THE PROPERTY, THEN WHEN CAUGHT OUT IN THE ABUSIVE DECEIPT, CONTINUING TO INSANELY LIE AND ACCUSE TENANTS OF BEING THE 'PROBLEM'.

Three 20-year-old girls were told to USE THE OTHER THREE STOVE ELEMENTS, after they contacted the landlord to inform that an element had broken. During pre-offer-to-lease inspection, the landlord stands in the tiny kitchen so that prospects can't get in there and feel rude asking the landlord to get out of the way so you can have a look for yourself, when HE IS TELLING YOU WHAT A GREAT LITTLE KITCHEN IT IS - with its rotten/damp cupboards - half of the lower cabinetry - and no cupboard doors on lower cabinets - which he also blocks you from seeing - the rotten tiles around the kitchen sink - which he also blocks you from seeing.

THE LANDLORD HID THIS DURING INSPECTION THEN LIED, CLAIMING HE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT IT WHEN, IN FACT, HE WAS THE ONE WHO PUT HALF A BRICK UNDER THE ELEMENT AND TOLD THE YOUNG GIRLS TO USE THE OTHER THREE ELEMENTS OF THE DANGEROUSLY DILAPIDATED STOVE. YOU CAN SEE THE BRICK SITTING ON THE ELEMENT OF THE GRILL.

THESE YOUNG GIRLS PAID $820 PER WEEK FOR A DWELLING THAT WAS STILL OVER PRICED AT $780 - WITHOUT THIS STOVE, BROKEN & MOULDY TILES, LEAKING DWELLING & DWELLING PORCH ROOFS, LEAKING TAPS AND NON-WORKING AIR CONDITIONING.

THE LANDLORD PROCEEDED TO ACTION ALL THE SAME ABUSIVE DECEIPT WHEN 'SHOWING' PROSPECTS THROUGH THE PROPERTY AFTER THE THREE YOUNG GIRLS 'ESCAPED' THIS HORROR TENANCY.

DUE TO THE LANDLORD DELIBERATELY DISTRACTING AND KNOWINGLY LYING ABOUT THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY AND ITS AMENITIES, YOU DO FEEL RUDE ASKING HIM TO GET OUT OF THE WAY SO THAT YOU CAN QUESTION HIS 'WORD' AND TAKE A LOOK FOR YOURSELF - DON'T TRUST ANYTHING THAT THIS BLATANT, RELENTLESS LIAR AND ABUSER SAYS - YOU'LL BE SHOCKED AT WHAT HE LIES ABOUT AND THE ABUSIVE SLANDER HE AND HIS COHORTS AT LAING SIMMONS THROW AT YOU, TO INTIMIDATE, SHUT YOU UP, EXHAUST YOU INTO SUBMISSION BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT A LIFE TO GET ON WITH - CARE OF YOUR FAMILY, STUDY, WORK ETC.

THIS IS FALSE INFORMATION PROVIDED TO REALESTATE.COM BY LAING SIMMONS REAL ESTATE, FIVE DOCK.

The three 20-year-old girls leased for $820 per week from 2023 to 2024 & the next lease holder leased for $820 per week. Allegedly, when the three young tenants vacated, the landlord and his cohorts priced the property at $1,000 per week - knowing that the roofs leak - as they do to date - the air conditioner does not work and when it does, 70% of the conditioned air stays in the ceiling cavity and extracts to the outside through the damaged roof and the whirlybird - not funnelled into the dwelling. Then the overworked external unit floundering due to missing parts in the ceiling cavity, causes it all to shut down - leaving tenants in an unbearable hothouse, day and night.
