FAQs and Resources
How do I prepare my rental application?
Complete the prescribed rental application form accurately and provide only the information and supporting documents requested in that form. Check that your contact details and referee details are correct. You do not need to provide an additional personal biography. Contact our team if you need help accessing or completing the application.
How do I view a property and when do I apply?
Open the listing for the property you are interested in to check inspection times and application instructions. If no inspection time is shown, contact the property manager with the property address. Use the application link provided for that property, or ask our team for the prescribed rental application form. Joining our waitlist does not submit an application for a property.
How can we help arrange your utility connection for free?
Please send an email to admin@exclusivepm.com.au and we will arrange this through My Connect on your behalf.
How do I submit a notice to vacate?
Give your notice of intention to vacate in writing and contact your property manager to confirm the requirements for your agreement. A renter leaving at the end of an agreement generally gives at least 28 days notice. Different rules can apply to early departures and particular circumstances, so 28 days is not a universal rule. Check Consumer Affairs Victoria for the current notice periods and recommended form before choosing your vacate date.
How do I advise my agent I have maintenance requiring attention at the property?
Report maintenance to your property manager in writing as soon as possible, including the property address, details of the issue and photos where useful. For an urgent repair, contact your property manager or the emergency contact supplied for your tenancy immediately, then confirm the request in writing. Use the Consumer Affairs Victoria repairs guide linked here for the urgent-repair list and the steps available if you cannot get a prompt response.
