Apply for a Rental

Apply only after you have read the listing and viewed the property or confirmed an alternative viewing arrangement with the listing contact. Rental availability changes, so check the current listing before preparing an application.

Use the application method and form identified for that property. The office’s WordPress settings currently have rental forms enabled and several application PDFs available, but the current approved file and submission route need confirmation. Do not send identity, banking or other sensitive documents to an unverified address. If the application link does not work, call the office on +64 (9) 431 4964 or email mangawhai.nz@raywhite.com and ask for the current instructions.

Prepare only information requested for the application. Tenancy Services says application information must be relevant to the tenancy, applicants should be told why it is collected and how it will be used, and a credit check should only be carried out on the preferred applicant with consent. Do not provide information unrelated to the rental decision. Read the current official guidance before applying.

Include the property address or listing reference, the names of intended occupants and a reliable way to contact you if the approved form requests them. Check every detail before submission. Keep a copy of what you send and note the date and submission method. The listing contact can explain the next step and expected response process for that property; no approval or response timeframe is guaranteed.
