Rental property lists are regularly updated. Inspection of rental properties is by appointment or as advertised 'Open for Inspection'. Please contact our property manager to arrange a suitable appointment.
If you are interested in a rental property, you will need to fill in a Tenancy Application Form and provide appropriate references. A decision usually takes between 24 and 48 hours and is at the absolute discretion of the landlord. All applications are processed and submitted to the landlord for consideration.
The Bond
Upon the signing of the lease, your Bond will be lodged with the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority where it will be held in trust for the duration of your lease. A Bond is held as a security deposit against any damage or undue wear and tear.
Once you vacate the property an inspection will be conducted by our Property Manager. Provided the property report coincides with the original Condition Report (providing for fair wear and tear), then you will be asked to fill in a Bond Claim Form to retrieve your Bond from the RTBA; this can take up to 14 days.
Rental Payments
Rent is payable in advance as per your Residential Tenancy Agreement. Always contact your Property Manager if you are unable to make a rental payment on time.
Insurance Requirements
It is the teant's responsibility to insure personal possessions against any loss, damage or theft.
Condition Report
At the commencement of your lease, our Property Manager will complete an inspection and full Condition Report; you will be given the opportunity to check this and add to it prior to moving into the property.
This is the report we refer to at the end of the tenancy. It is therefore in your best interest to read through the Condition Report and Tenancy Agreement thoroughly and ensure you retain a copy in a safe place. Half yearly inspections will also be conducted by our Property Management staff during the tenancy period.
You will be contacted in advance to arrange a mutually agreeable time.
Keys
It is advised you provide a duplicate key to Robert Eggers Real Estate for emergency purposes.
It is the tenant's responsibility to ensure that the duplicate key we have is current. Duplicate keys may be borrowed during normal business hours and must be returned by close of business on the same day.
Keys will only be given to those providing suitable identification.
Maintenance & Repair Requests
All maintenance requests must be made in writing. You may do this using the online Maintenance Request Form or via fax. Phone requests will only be accepted in an extreme emergency.
Where possible, we aim to attend to request quickly, however in some instances we are required to obtain quotes and Landlord approval, in which case there may be a short delay. It is the tenant's responsibility to provide access and keep appointments with tradesmen.
Terminating your Tenancy Agreement
Your Residential Tenancy Agreement is a legally binding document between you and your Landlord.
If you wish to terminate your tenancy after the lease agreement has expired, you must give 28 days notice in writing prior to vacating. If your tenancy agreement is still current and you wish to vacate, you are breaking your lease.
This means that you are responsible for meeting payments until a suitable replacement tenant is found or until the expriation of the lease, whichever is sooner. You will also be responsible for advertising costs, the letting fee and GST.
Contact our Property Manager immediately if you decide to terminate your tenancy and find out exactly what your obligations are.
