Landlord Information

Entry condition report Form 1A

This is a RTA report that is compiled at the commencement of a tenancy prior to your tenant moving into the property. The report is the evidence of the condition of the property at the beginning and at the end of the tenancy. The report enables us to check that when the tenant vacates the property is left in the same condition taking into account fair wear and tear.   Once the tenant has vacated and handed their keys.  The property manager uses this report to conduct the last inspection where each item is checked off as they go through the property to make sure that it is left in the same condition as when the tenant took possession.  Any issues that may arise from the final inspection will then be rectified with the tenant prior to releasing their bond.

What is a Routine Inspection?

Routine inspections are conducted after a tenant takes possession of the property and are conducted every four months. These inspections are essential to ensure that your property is being maintained to an acceptable standard and to identify any maintenance that may be required. A copy of the routine inspection report is forwarded to you after each inspection and should it be necessary, a member of the Real Property Consultants Property Management Team will contact you to discuss items noted on the report.

What happens when a tenant stops paying rent?

When a tenant falls behind in their rental payments they are issued with a notice of breach advising them that they are behind and requesting that they rectify the problem. If this is not done within the stipulated time period then a termination notice is issued requiring that they vacate the premises.

How do tenants pay their rent?

Tenants have several options to pay their rent, leaving no excuse for late payments. – By cheque or money order – Internet Banking through their chosen financial institution – Direct debit from their nominated bank account, we will supply the tenant with our account details to arrange an automatic transfer.
