Re: Tenancy Application Forms

Hi megsahr, welcome to the forum

With one of our last tenants it didn’t work so well and we are currently doing the tenancy tribunal thing.

In what way did it not work? I'm interested because I also use the same form.

Hi,
She was a gang associate and all the references were fake. We did ring the past landlord but was another associate of the gang's we suspect. WINZ didn’t tell us her history as they wanted us to house her. So we are looking for a form with credit checks etc.

They say you learn more from your mistakes than your successes. She has taught us heaps. Actually she was a good tenant until her man got out of prison.

Thanks

Hi megsahr,

PM drelly, he was kind enough to supply me with one that he uses. It is very comprehensive and all on the one page.

You may want to contact the above people at TENANTLink, I am sure they may have some resources for you to use as part of their service.

Regards,

Real old thread Aaron.

Pop into my web site and fill out the form I have. It will email the results to you. Make sure you put in the reason for moving bit that you're from here or I'll think you are an applicant.

Hi, great to see so much support. We also have a tenancy agreement we have developed with a page of additional clauses, works extremely well for us. If you want another one to compare we are more than happy, if you give us a PM to supply you with one. There really is so much missing from the standard DBH tenancy agreement.

**stevensaaron** · 11-08-2012, 08:02 PM

Hey Robyn, I spoke to you the other day, you text me about my rental on Breckons Ave, I have just found a tenant, who looked through today, and has checked out with previous two landlords, so anyway just wanting to check over my Tenancy agreement, could you email me yours so i can compare with mine?? i can't PM anyone yet cos i haven't done my minimum 10 post on this forum yet...my email address is stevensaaron(at)gmail(dot)com

On presentation of this form, the tenants acknowledge that a pre-final inspection will be necessary at least seven days prior to the final day, purely to outline any expectations and obligations inline with this agreement, for the purposes of ensuring a comfortable transition for future tenants and to ensure minimal time in the bond refund process.

The tenants agree to inform the electricity/gas and telephone companies of a forwarding billing address should this be necessary.
