A bond (sometimes called a ‘security deposit’) is an amount of money paid by renters at the start of a tenancy. The bond is then transferred and held at the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority (RTBA) for the duration of the tenancy.
Upon commencement of your tenancy, all renters are required to complete a Bond Lodgement Form in order to comply with the process. This form is to be filled out electronically and will be send directly to you from the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority (RTBA) once the bond is paid and funds have cleared.
Keys will not be handed over for the rental property until the bond is lodged with the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority (RTBA).
A Residential Tenancy Agreement is a written agreement between the renter and the rental provider (landlord). It is a legal contract under the Residential Tenancies Act 1997, which protects the rights of renters and rental providers. The Residential Tenancy Agreement will outline everything the renter must do while they live in the home and everything the rental provider must do. It features information about:
· the home
· the renter(s) who will live in the home
· how long the renter(s) will live in the home
· rent – how much renters must pay and how often you must pay it
· bond – money renters pay before they can move in.
Be sure to read the agreement carefully before signing it. You will also need to keep a copy of the agreement once signed.
You can find more information about the Residential Tenancy Agreement in this booklet, created by Consumer Affairs Victoria.
Renters who want to have a pet in the property must ask their rental provider (landlord) for permission. Rental providers must have a good reason to refuse the renter's request. Rental providers can apply to VCAT for an order to refuse permission.
Under the legislation, rental providers (landlords) can only increase rent once every 12 months, not every 6 months as was previously the case. If rental providers want to increase the rent during a fixed-term rental agreement, the amount or how the increase will be calculated, must be included in the rental agreement. We conduct annual rental reviews to ensure rent is at market level.
We conduct the first inspection at the 3 month mark, and then every 6 months after that.
Spring selling season has finally arrived and it never fails to disappoint in Melbourne.
In Melbourne, the charm of warehouse conversions has not only been preserved but celebrated, making them a cherished option among homebuyers. These once bustling industrial sites now serve as bespoke residences, creating spaces that are as characterful as the city itself.
In the pursuit of transforming houses into homes, Australians have access to a splendid array of homeware brands that offer unique aesthetics and quality craftsmanship. Whether looking to add a touch of elegance, a splash of colour, or a statement piece, these brands cater to every design vision.
Fireplaces have long been cherished as the heart of the home, providing both warmth and a cosy gathering spot. Historically essential in every period home, they featured prominently from kitchens to bedrooms.
Whether it’s window-shopping at boutique stores, people-watching from a cafe, or enjoying a sundowner from a rooftop bar, Melburnians often find their happiest moments along these bustling locales.
As we prepare for the cooler months ahead, it is a great time to redesign your bedroom so that it is cosy, yet functional and inspiring. Well-chosen pieces and thoughtful styling are key to creating a bedroom that embraces your personality whilst providing trans-seasonal comfort.
In a rush to modernise, homeowners often overlook the inherent charm and character found in the period details of their homes. Such features are not just remains of a bygone era but are vital pieces of architectural history. Better yet, for those contemplating selling, highlighting rather than hiding these heritage hallmarks could be a pivotal attraction for buyers.
In today’s interior design world, the resurgence of retro styles is making its presence known. With a nod to nostalgia, homeowners and designers alike turn to the past for inspiration, weaving the enduring charm of yesteryears with the practicality of modern living.
Look beyond Melbourne’s energetic heart to admire a rich mosaic of neighbourhoods, each with unique character and local charm. From the leafy serenity of the East to the beachy vibes of the South, these areas provide a colourful backdrop for varied lifestyles.
