Applying for a rental property
Ensuring that our properties are rented to the best possible candidates is very important to us, as it generally leads to a mutually beneficial relationship.
We have adopted a very thorough screening process of prospective tenants and aim to complete our checks within 24 hours of receiving a fully completed application. Once the verification process is complete we forward all applications to the owner(s) for consideration and we generally have a reply from owners regarding their selection within 48 hours of your completed application being received by our office.
Follow these simple steps when applying for a rental property
- Download a rental application form
- Download a tenancy agreement
- Make an appointment with our office to inspect the property
- Upon receiving a fully completed application we will submit your application to the owner within 24 hours and have a final decision to you within 48 hours
NB: you must submit
- a form of photo identification with your application
- current Property Manager/ Agency or private landlord contact details
- evidence of financial capability – bank statement, pay slip (including Centrelink payments), employment contract – one of these is required
NB: Applications are subject to owner’s approval
Successful applications
- You will be required to immediately pay a deposit of 1 weeks rent to secure the property
- We require 2 weeks rent and 4 weeks bond prior to taking possession of the property
- Our office does not accept bond transfers
- Initial payments of bond and rent can only be paid by bank cheque, money order or direct credit into our bank account
- All parties to the lease must attend the sign up appointment at our office – this will take approximately 30 minutes
- We are unable to hand over keys until tenancy documents are signed, all money is paid and the lease has started
Unsuccessful applications
We will notify you once the property owner has communicated their decision to us. This is generally within 24-48 hours of receiving your fully completed application.
