Rental Process For Tenants

Finding the right home

At gavan property we make it as easy as possible to find the right home for you by advertising on all major real estate web portals. We conduct regular open houses every Saturday or if you cannot make the scheduled inspection time our property management team can organise a private viewing. 

Apply for the property

All tenants will be required to complete a detailed application form and provide supporting documentation. This will include employment and rental information. Once this has been reviewed by the Gavan Property rental manager and the landlord, you will be notified that your application has been approved and you can proceed to sign leases.

Sign leases

Tenants will sign leases that provide a clear agreement as to what is expected of them and what their rights are. We always look forward to a positive relationship and if you have any questions, we are happy to help.

Upon vacating

We always provide a clear vacating procedure which allows our tenants to have a clear guide as to their responsibilities and expectations when they vacate a property.

Faqs

What is a residential tenancy agreement?

A residential tenancy agreement is a legally binding written contract between you, as a tenant or resident and a property landlord, it is also commonly called a lease.  This document should be given to the tenant before paying any money or being committed to the tenancy.  Make sure you read it carefully and ask any questions.

What goes into the Tenancy Agreement?

The name and address of the tenant, and the property manager/owner or provider

The dates when the agreement starts and ends (or state that the agreement is periodic)

Details about how the tenant should pay the rent and how much rent is to be paid

Details about what the tenant and the property manager/owner or provider can and cannot do, known as 'standard terms'

Any special terms (these should be agreed in advance, e.g. that dogs are allowed but must be kept outside or carpet cleaning)

The length and type of tenancy - either a fixed term agreement where the tenant agrees to rent the property for a fixed term such as 6,9,12 months or a periodic agreement when a tenant / resident lives there for an indefinite period

The amount of bond required

Other conditions and rules.

What is a bond?

A bond is a separate payment to rent, it is money that acts as security for the landlord or owner in case you don't meet the terms of your lease agreement.

At the end of your agreement if the property is in need of cleaning or repairs or if items need to be replaced, then landlord or owner may claim some or all of the bond.

As the bond is a separate payment to the rent you cannot use any part of the bond as rent – so, when you are moving out, you cannot ask the landlord to keep your bond as final rent payment.

What is a condition report?

When you pay a bond, the landlord or owner must prepare a condition report.  This includes the general condition of the property including fittings and fixtures.  It is important that you carefully check the condition report and make sure it includes all existing damage or issues with the property.  Legislation allows tenants a number of days to check the details completed by the agent/owner on the condition report, to confirm or disagree with those details.  As the condition report can be used as evidence if there is a dispute about who should pay for cleaning, damage or replacement of missing items at the end of the agreement –make sure you go over it with a fine tooth comb.
