What are the benefits?
1. Information and Instructions
myRent provides landlords and tenants with a simple, step-by-step process to pay and lodge a bond. We outline all the key legal and practical information in an easily-understood way for both tenants and landlords at every step of the process.
2. Access to Documents and Resources
myRent gives you direct access to all the key resources you'll need to pay and lodge a bond. myRent's secure document storage also gives you 24/7 access to all the bond lodgement information - this is important for reference, especially at the end of the tenancy.
3. Electronic Lodgement and Signatures
myRent gives you the option to lodge bonds electronivally by sending information directly to Tenancy Services. If any changes are required to be made to the bond register during the tenancy, change of tenants forms or bond refund forms can be easily created and electronic signatures collected - this saves the hassle of printing and rescanning documents while allowing the tenancy process to be made paperless and secure.
How does it work?
myRent streamlines paying and lodging bonds with a simple 5 step process.
1. myRent pre-fills bond lodgement details
myRent saves you time by completing the bond lodgement forms for you with the information you’ve already provided to us.
You can review this information to make sure it’s correct.
2. myRent guides landlords through providing extra details and electronic signatures
As a landlord, you’ll need to provide some more information to complete your bond lodgement. myRent guides you through a few additional steps.
You can then authorise myRent to lodge your bond via RealMe. After that, submitting bonds is just a few clicks away.
This is a quick, one-time setup—once done, you won’t need to repeat it for future lodgements.
3. myRent helps tenants pay their contribution to the bond separately
IWe can help collect the bond from your tenants, making the process even smoother.
Tenants decide how much they each contribute to the bond. They can then pay their own contribution to myRent.
4. myRent lodges the bond with Tenancy Services
Once all the tenants have paid their contribution of the bond, myRent will lodge the bond with Tenancy Services.
Both landlord and tenants should then receive an email receipt from Tenancy Services for their bond within 10 working days of lodgement.
What if I’ve already lodged the bond?
If you’ve already lodged a bond, no worries! You can upload your bond lodgement acknoledgement letter to your myRent dashboard for safe-keeping.
