10 key steps to renting your next home
-
Step 1: Set your budget
Review your finances and establish affordability. Read our tenant information to understand the upfront costs associated with renting. Consider if the no-deposit option suits your plans.
-
Step 2: Start your search
Visit one of our nationwide branches or contact us online to register as an active tenant. Our team lets you know when a suitable property comes on the market.
-
Step 3: Arrange your viewings
Visit the properties you like, and then revisit the area to get a feel for if it’s right for you.
-
Step 4: Secure your home
The rental market is extremely competitive, so when you’ve decided on a property, you need to act quickly.
-
Step 5: References and credit checks
If you’ve rented a property before, you’ll need to provide prospective agents with contact details for your referees, so they can start the referencing process. The letting agent will also perform credit checks.
-
Step 6: Pay your deposit
Unless you are taking up a membership of The Residency and and taking advantage of our no-deposit option, you’ll need to pay a deposit in full to secure the home. We use an independent company to secure your deposit.
-
Step 7: Sign your tenancy agreement
The tenancy agreement is a legally binding document and outlines the terms of the tenancy. You need to read this carefully before you sign.
-
Step 8: Move in
If we’re managing the property, one of our expert move managers will let you know when to collect your keys.
-
Step 9: During your tenancy
When Leaders manage the property, we visit several times a year to check everything is okay and to ask if you have any questions or concerns.
-
Step 10: Renew or vacate
When your tenancy ends, you and your landlord will have the option to renew the tenancy agreement or make arrangements to leave the property. If you decide to move on, we arrange a check-out with an independent inventory company to check and compile a report detailing the condition of the property.

Had a pretty smooth and painless experience organising a flat with Leaders! They helped me and my roommate navigate these troubled waters with the ongoing housing crisis. Megan was excellent throughout the process!

Tom provided a brilliant service for me as a landlord from start to finish.Tom was super proactive with all required processes from listing to finding tenants and all legal requirements and property checks. Such a pleasure to work with a team that genuinely care about the outcome as much as I did.Can't recommend enough!
