If you are planning to move into a rental property, you ll want to start your search with a trusted and reputable agency.

LJ Hooker recognises the value of your time and we have a great range of tools at our disposal to help you customise your searches and maximise your results.

Many people choose to begin their rental property search online - but you may find that a mobile phone app is more convenient when you re on the go. Alternatively, you can meet with an LJ Hooker agent to discuss your options and find a property that suits you.

Once you have made your choice, you can quickly and easily complete your application online and pay a deposit - usually equivalent to two weeks rent, although this can vary from landlord to landlord.

As soon as your application has been approved, you ll be able to prepare for your move. On the day you sign your lease, you will be expected to pay your bond, as well as your first rent payment.

You will also have to complete your condition report and set up your utilities and other services - your LJ Hooker agent can assist you with this process if you prefer.
