With semester one fast approaching, the Residential Tenancies Authority (RTA) has updated its suite of student resources to provide practical tips and information about navigating each step of the rental process.
Our dedicated student webpage provides information to support student renters, many of whom are renting in Australia for the first time when they go to university, TAFE or other tertiary education or training institutes.
The updated page now includes three new webinars for students:
- tenancy rights and responsibilities, and applying for a tenancy (10 minutes)
- starting a tenancy and during a tenancy (9 minutes)
- ending a tenancy (5 minutes).
The student renter page also includes checklists for moving in and moving out of a rental property or rooming accommodation, and an episode of the RTA’s Talking Tenancies podcast, which provides tips specifically for student renters.
