Finding a rental property can be tricky at times, so we’ve put together a guide to make it just that little bit easier!

How to submit an application

Finding the right property

The rental market is very competitive and properties usually get snatched up quite quickly. This is why it pays to be prepared and organised before you make the move. Before you begin to view properties it’s important to know what is required to create a successful application that will WOW the Property Manager and most importantly the owner.

Tips that may help your application get in first

• Set up rental alerts on www.realestate.com.au and follow our Instagram as these are the first places we upload new listings

• Attend the first open inspection of the property and introduce yourself to the Property Manager

• Confirm open inspection times the day before you view the property

• Make sure you meet all the requirements on the application e.g. enough identification, all previous rental history provided, all pet information supplied

• Let your rental and personal references know to expect contact from us

• The more information you provide the easier and the fast it is for agents to process
