6 x Weeks of Rent. 2 Weeks of Rent as a Holding Deposit for the room. 4 Weeks of Rent as a Bond Payment, for the room. See the below FAQ questions for more details on these items. The bank reconciliation fee ($24.00 per 6 months) must also be paid prior to signing the lease.
The holding deposit secures your interest in the room and is credited as your first 2 weeks of rent when the lease agreement is signed and keys are collected.
The bond is sent to the Residential Tenancy Authority (RTA) where it is held until after you vacate the property. The RTA will then return your bond monies to you less any amounts you may owe to Hive, such as unpaid rent or damages, at the end of your lease. Please note that RTA policy dictates that bond refunds must be paid into an Australian bank account.

Yes, there is an after hour’s key drop box however it is preferred for keys to be returned during office hours. If keys are returned to the drop box after hours, tenants must be sure to also include a copy of their steam clean receipt (if carried out by a third party cleaner) & their bond refund information (Bank account details). Keys should be labelled and placed in an envelope before placing in the drop box, as we receive a large number of keys each day.
