Tenancy Application Form

[ang]

I have an open day this Saturday, looking for new tenants.
Can I put on my Tenant Application Form
( Do you have criminal convictions )
Any other tips for the application form would be great.

I just download the pre tenancy application form from the tenancy website

Just looked at that DBH one.

Missing sooooo much.

IE.
Do you have pets? Y - N (if you have a dog, registration number)
Do you have a will? Y - N
Have you ever been evicted? Y - N
Do you smoke? Y - N

Bank account number:

WINZ number:

Trademe/Facebook usernames

And so on. I have one full page dedicated to the Privacy Act declaration.

Thanks Keys.
I have Pets, Smoking, WINZ, Bank Account on mine. I just wasn't sure how much you can ask.
I'm going to add, (have you been evicted)
Whats with the will???? Are you pulling my leg?

Whats with the will???? Are you pulling my leg?

If the tenant dies without a will, the tenancy ends.

If the tenant dies with a will, the tenancy continues and the executors become your tenants and normal termination conditions apply.

Very interesting information Keys. I didn't know that one.
Have you, or any other experts used this in an application form
( Do you have criminal convictions )

Might sound like a long shot, but just for the record, it does happen. I had a tenant that died of a heart attack in my property.

But there were two other tenants there at the time and they were special needs tenant through the government, so the rent still got paid.
