Cancellation of Agreement BEFORE the Lease Commencement Date

A student can cancel an agreement without penalty if they do not receive a visa to study in Australia prior to their lease commencing

Cancellation of Agreement AFTER the Lease Commencement Date

A student can cancel an agreement without penalty if they do not receive their visa to study in Australia up to and including the first 14 days of their lease agreement

After this time, the property management reserves the right to recover reasonable costs for agreement cancellation and early termination from advanced rent or bond payments (including but not limited to cleaning, advertising, administration costs and loss of rent) until the room is re-let.

1. Written confirmation from you that you wish to cancel your booking agreement with the management

2. Supporting official evidence from The Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP) showing that your visa application declined

The supporting evidence should be supplied to the property management via email within 72 hours of you receiving official confirmation that your Visa was declined by the DIBP.

Early termination by students

The property management reserves the right to charge the student, the costs incurred as a consequence of the student’s early vacation of the room/apartment including (but is not limited to) the reasonable costs of the re-letting the room, cleaning, loss of rent.

Delayed Arrivals & travel restrictions

Students can defer their leasing agreement with the property management due to late provision of their visa, resulting to a deferral of the commencement date of their university studies in Australia. The management will change the student’s lease agreement start date. The booking agreement, including all special terms, room type and location, will be held as previously stated in the original agreement.

Replacement Tenant Found

If a cancellation is requested less than 14 days before the agreement start date, the student will be responsible for rent until a replacement tenant has been found.
