How to apply for a rental property

This FAQ outlines the process on how to apply for our rental properties. The RTA also has some helpful information on Choosing a Rental Property.

Rental Application Process

In order to give yourself the best chance of securing a rental property, make sure you provide all the rental application information and supporting documents to enable us to review and provide a recommendation to the Landlord for their consideration.

It is part of your Property Manager’s job to complete a due diligence process to ensure that a quality tenant is secured who can pay the rent on time and will look after the property.
