Renting Tips

Market rent is what a landlord might reasonably expect to receive, and a willing tenant might reasonably expect to pay for the tenancy. It must be comparable to the rent charged for other properties of a similar type, size and location.

There are two main types of tenancies – a periodic tenancy and a fixed-term tenancy. It is important you know what you have to do in each kind of tenancy so you can choose the one that suits you best.

References are a great tool in providing character and professional profiles, as well as rental history from previous landlords or Property Managers.

Here are a few things to consider when looking for a property to rent:

• Is the property suitable for your needs?
• Do you need a property that is furnished?
• Do you need to be close to public transport?
• Do you have pets and does the property allow pets?
• Do you have pets or children that require fenced yards?
• Who is responsible for mowing the lawns and maintaining the gardens?
• Are you available to to inspect the property?
• When is the property available?
• If your application was successful, when could you move in?
• Have you provided as much information as possible with your application and do you have current references for the Landlord's consideration?
