Our Process - How to Lease a Property through Richardson & Wrench Maroubra
Our tenants find the following information useful:
1. Your initial point of contact
Your Leasing Consultant is your first point of contact and will assist you with any enquiries you have during the inspection and application process. Our Leasing Consultants are allocated specific properties; therefore you may deal with several of our Leasing Consultants during your property search.
2. Property inspection
A Leasing Consultant will meet you at the property and take you through. During the inspection please note any alterations or additions you would like made to the property, if any. Note however, the Owner may or may not be able to accommodate your request/s and may ask for you to contribute to the cost.
Any requests for the owner must be noted on this application at the time of applying, or will not be considered by the owner.
3. Completing your tenancy application form
It is essential that each person over eighteen years who will reside in the property completes a Tenancy Application form, even if the resident will not be on the lease. The prospective tenant's children need not be included.
> Proposed Start Date of lease, length of lease and rental amount
> Number of occupants (Each Occupant over 18 years of age must complete a Tenancy Application Form) Ages of Children (if any)
> Pets (type, age, references, if any)
> Evidence of applicant's income
> Rental references
> Any comments or alteration/addition requests (refer to Property Inspection section)
> Photography of Identification - Passport, Driver's Licence or Student Identification Card
> At lease two references from previous Lessors or Agents, copies or previous rental receipts and rental history report
> Proof of last residential address - Telstra Account, Electricity Account etc
> Supporting proof of Income, for payment of rental
4. Submitting your tenancy application form
At the time of submitting your application, you will be required to pay one weeks rent (application fee). Should your application not be approved by the Owner, your application fee will be refunded in full. An application fee must be made in the form of cash, bank cheque or money order. Personal cheques will not be accepted. You are required to sign the terms and conditions of the application fee (attached). Once you have submitted your application and application fee, you cannot change the terms you have specified in your application.
You will also need to provide us with your driver's license or passport, which will be photocopied in our office and attached to your application.
Should you decide not to proceed with your application, the number of days from when you paid your application fee will be calculated and multiplied by the daily rent and forfeited to the Owner.
Please note: an incomplete tenancy application can not be processed.
What happens now?
Your references will be verified and the owner of the property will be consulted. On some occasions, we may not be able to immediately make contact with your references, or the owner, which is beyond our control. Your patience is appreciated. Once we have received instructions from the owner, we will be in contact with you to confirm the tenancy and hand over your file to your Property Manager, who will be in contact with you to sign the lease and advise of monies due at the time of signing the lease.
