We will provide you with strategies to increase your rental return

Choosing the Right Tenant

You choose your own tenants.

All prospective tenants are required to complete a detailed application

form and supply identification as well as documentation of their existing

and previous residential status.

A series of checks are carried out to determine whether the applicant is

suitable for your property.

Prospective tenants are required to supply the following:

Employment details, pay slips

Current and previous address of residence

Photo identification

Rental ledgers and rental history

Bank statement

Once we have checked the applications we submit the details their details

to you, to make the final decision.

When a tenant has been approved they are required to leave a holding

deposit of 1 weeks rent to secure the property for 7 days. Should they

decide not to proceed with the tenancy the holding deposit is refunded to

the owner.

Residential Lease Signing

Residential Tenancy Agreements are legal documents outlining the terms

and conditions which bind the owner, the agent, and the tenants to the

agreed terms of the lease.

After a tenancy application has been approved, the Residential Tenancy

Agreement is prepared along with a Conditions Report. Before the tenants

sign the Residential Tenancy Agreement they are required to pay 4 weeks

bond plus 2 weeks rent in advance.

Once the Residential Tenancy Agreement has been signed all parties will

receive a copy of the following:

• Residential Tenancy Agreement

• Ingoing Photos

• Condition Report

Property Inspection Report

Following a discerning selection of a tenant, a physical inspection of your

property is the next most important activity in protecting your investment.

A comprehensive condition report is compiled complete with internal and

external digital photographs of the property at the beginning of the tenancy.

Upon the tenants vacating, this condition report is used to compare the

condition of the property at the end of the tenancy with the condition we

recorded at the beginning.

We can easily determine if the tenant is liable for any cleaning or damages

created during the term of their tenancy.

Should cleaning or repairs be required by the tenant we will arrange a qualified

tradespeople to attend to the items and deduct the costs from the tenants’

bond accordingly.

Routine Inspections

The landlord is entitled to four periodic inspections per year and we carry out

our periodic inspections every 15 weeks.

You will be notified of all upcoming routine inspections and we will invite you

Drive-by inspections are carried out on a regular basis.
