Tenancy changes
As the tenant, it is your responsibility to advise your property manager of any changes in the tenancy (eg one of the occupants is moving out, or a new person is moving in).
Third-party tenancy advice
When you start your tenancy, GMP will provide you with a booklet published by the Office of Fair Trading and Business Affairs that clearly sets out your rights and responsibilities as a tenant. This booklet contains contact details of who to contact if you require further information about your tenancy rights and responsibilities. Excellent information for tenants and landlords is also available at consumer.vic.gov.au
Information on rent increases
Under the Residential Tenancies Act, rent can only be increased at six-monthly intervals, and the tenant must receive 60 days' notice of any increase.
Periodic inspections
From time to time, we will conduct routine inspections of the property. You will usually receive one week's notice and we value your cooperation.
Keys
If you change the locks, you must provide your property manager with a key. If you have any other key-related questions (eg lost keys), please speak to your property manager.
Payment Options
Initial rent payments must be made payable to GMP Real Estate by either Visa or Master Card Payment, Bpay, Money order or Bank Cheque. Bonds payments must be made payable to RTBA by either, Money order or Bank Cheque. Personal
Cheques are not accepted.
Acknowledgements
The applicant acknowledges that the property as inspected is in clean and satisfactory condition. All fitted appliances will be in good and proper working order.
Unsuccessful Applications
Your application will be retained for a short time and then will be disposed of via a safe disposal method.
Successful Applications
You will be notified by phone. You must sign your new tenancy agreement, bond lodgement form and pay your bond within 24 hours of your approval. Keys and access to the property will be only made available once all documents have been signed and all monies paid by you. No action may be taken against any party if your application is unsuccessful or the premises become unavailable on the date for any reason whatsoever. Failure to answer honestly all questions that form part of this application or your failure to abide by any of the requirements mentioned may result in your application being dismissed.
Insurance
We strongly recommend that you arrange adequate insurance to cover the contents of the property.
