Renting should feel straightforward.
This hub brings everything you need into one place, with guides, forms and checklists to help you apply, understand your lease and look after your tenancy.
Before we get started, here you will find questions and answers to some commonly asked questions around the application and inspection process
Residential Tenancies Authority
This Form 17a – Information Statement is a handy guide for tenants, provided by the Residential Tenancies Authority to make you aware of what your rights & responsibilities are. It is a legal requirement that we provide this to you prior to the commencement of your tenancy.
Maintenance
All general maintenance MUST be reported to our office in writing. This can be done by submitting a Maintenance Request Form, emailing your property manager, or filling out the handy form on our website. Once we have received your maintenance request, we will contact the owner for authority & arrange repairs.
If the maintenance is an emergency, please contact the office by phone to advise of the issue so we can address it urgently.
For emergency maintenance that occurs outside of business hours, refer to your lease agreement for instructions.
Pet Application
If you’re thinking about adopting a pet, it’s important to first check that the property you rent is pet-friendly by submitting a Pet Application to your Property Manager.
This form must be approved before making any adoption commitments, even if the property was advertised as pet friendly, as each new addition to the tenancy needs approval before moving in.
Ending a Tenancy
To end your tenancy, at least two weeks’ written notice must be submitted using a Notice to Intention to Leave Form.
If you are on a fixed term lease that is not due to expire, you should contact your Property Manager for advice on the break lease procedure.
Vacating a Tenancy
Moving doesn’t have to be stressful. Our Guide to Vacating and Cleaning Checklist will tell you all that’s needed to know about vacating & what to do to ensure a stress free move & a quick bond refund.
Exit Condition Report
It’s important to make sure the property is in the same condition it was when moving in. It is the tenant’s responsibility to complete & return the Exit Condition Report at the end of the tenancy. By doing so, you will ensure your rights as a tenant are protected & and the bond is refunded quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
2Apply is a free online application form used by many Real Estate agencies across Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. You can log into the Tenant App on your phone using your 2Apply account to submit applications and book inspections on properties you are interested in, as well as receive notifications about newly listed properties.
Applications are submitted online using 2Apply. Once you have completed your 2Apply profile, the application form will pre-fill your information. You can click the ‘Apply Now’ button to be taken to the online form, or ‘Request an Inspection’ to be sent an email with links to the application form and available inspection times.
For the best chance of securing a property, we strongly recommend using the online application form. Paper applications take longer to process due to requiring manual data entry and follow-up, and you will need to provide the same documentation as the online form. If you are experiencing technical issues preventing you from submitting an online application please contact 2Apply support for assistance: 2applysupport@inspectrealestate.com.au
No, we encourage you to apply as soon as possible using our online application. If your application is successful prior to viewing, we will contact you to arrange an inspection.
Due to the overwhelming number of enquiries we receive on all of our properties we can only offer virtual inspections to pre-approved applicants.
The application process typically takes between 24 hours and a week depending on the volume of applications received on the property, and whether additional documents or references are required. You will receive email updates as it progresses, or you can check on the status of your application in the Tenant App.
Guarantors will need to submit a full application along with yours. They will need to provide the same documentation as a normal applicant and will be listed on the lease as well.
