Payment of Bond

Rental Payments
Rent is due and payable in advance on the 10th of each month and therefore in the second month you will have an adjustment rent to be paid. All rent is paid by direct debit only.
Late Rent Payment
Late rental payments impact on the tenant as they are recorded thus creating a negative tenant profile. If you are having any problems paying rent it is important you contact South Yarra Real Estate immediately to discuss the situation.
Condition Report
The Condition Report establishes the condition of the property at the
commencement of your tenancy and is used as a comparison at the end of your
tenancy for your Bond Claim.
The tenant has THREE BUSINESS DAYS to complete and return the Condition
Report. If you neglect to return the signed copy of the Condition Report as
required you could forfeit your right to object if there is a disagreement at the
end of your tenancy in regard to the condition of the property.
Keys
If you lock yourself out of the property after hours you will need to arrange
access at your own expense. Our preferred locksmiths operate 24 hours/7 days
