Who holds the bond and where disputes go differs by state and territory. Each guide links the official sources.

Questions

Does it replace the official condition report?

No. It supports it. Fill in and return the official condition report within your state's time limit, and keep your KeepMyBond PDF and original photos.

What does the SHA-256 fingerprint prove?

That the photo file hasn't changed since it was fingerprinted. It doesn't prove who took it or guarantee how a tribunal will weigh it.

Is it really free?

Yes, the move-in report is free. The optional Move-out / Dispute Pack (move-out photo matching, AI photo compare, reply letter and PDF evidence bundle) is A$29 one-off, only if you need it.

Is this legal advice?

No. KeepMyBond provides information and evidence tools, not legal advice.

It can't promise any outcome, and the rules and time limits on your official notice and your state's official source are what count.
