Residential leasing
How much notice do I need to give?
If you intend to vacate at the end of your tenancy agreement you are required to give 14 days written notice before your agreement expires. Once the fixed term of your tenancy agreement has expired you must give us at least 21 days written notice.
What do I need to do if I need to vacate before the lease ends?
If you need to break your lease you must give us notice in writing of the day you intend to vacate. We will then source a tenant to replace you. Any new tenant must submit a tenancy application and be approved by the landlord.
You will be required to pay the following costs -
- All advertising costs. This includes a $77 internet upload fee, $22 per week for priority internet placements, and approximately $80 per week for print advertising.
- All rent until a new tenant is found and begins paying rent.
- Any difference between the new rent and your old rent until the time your lease ends.
- A letting fee of 2.2% of the annualised weekly rent - approximately one weeks rent + GST.
- A lease preparation fee of $31.50.
