Upon signing the Residential Tenancy Agreement, the Parent/Legal Guardian becomes responsible for ensuring rent is paid, the premises is maintained etc.

This varies, depending on the type property, and owners individual requirements.  In general, tenants are responsible for mowing the lawn, weeding garden beds, watering, and sweeping paths etc in houses and some units, unless otherwise stated in their Residential Tenancy Agreement.

However, in blocks of units, the Body Corporate are usually responsible for garden and lawn maintenance.

Maintenance of gardens and lawns will be discussed with you at the time of signing the lease, and any specific requirements will be detailed in your Residential Tenancy Agreement.

Yes, we do require all prospective tenants to have viewed a property prior to submitting an application.  However, if you are unable to inspect yourself, you can send a family member or trusted friend to view on your behalf.

In some instances it may be possible to sign a Residential Tenancy Agreement which incorporates a “sight unseen” clause, indicating the property has not been inspected, and that you are prepared to take the premises “as is”, but this is generally only used for interstate applicants.
