Rent Payments

Paying Your Rent

We ask that you only pay your rent as agreed in your tenancy agreement. Unless specifically requested, we are unable to accept rent payments at our office, cash or otherwise.

Available Payment Methods

We offer several methods of payment for rent as follows:

SimpleRent – direct debit and card payments   (convenience fees apply, see schedule below)

Rental Rewards – direct debit and card payments   (convenience fees apply, see schedule below)

Card – via jjre.com.au/payments  (convenience fees apply, see schedule below)

Bank Transfer

Recommended Payment Method

The trust account software technology we use (the leading software provider for real estate agents) can not automatically trace and allocate the source of payments via direct payment to a trust account, hence the reliance on most real estate agents including ourselves to use third-party providers.
 
To that end, we have partnered with SimpleRent as our preferred payment method as it offers the lowest fee schedule that we are aware of. SimpleRent offers direct debit payments through all the widely used payment services.
 
Importantly SimpleRent provides a unique BANKLINK reference code that correctly allocates your rent payment to your account every time, automatically.
 
Important
For tenants choosing to pay via bank transfer, please ensure you use the exact reference number we provide. Funds received into our trust account without proper identification may be held for up to 12 months before being sent to the Public Trustee as unclaimed.

Calendar Monthly Payments

If you plan to pay rent monthly, it’s helpful to know that a “calendar month” isn’t the same as 4 weeks or 28 days. Since months vary in length (28, 30, or 31 days), monthly rent is more than 4 weeks’ rent.

To calculate a monthly payment from a weekly rent amount:

Weekly rent ÷ 7 = daily rent

Daily rent x 365 = annual rent

Annual rent ÷ 12 = monthly rent

This method gives you 12 equal monthly payments.
