Our off-campus accommodation is always in high demand, so we recommend applying early to ensure your group is considered in our planning for the next academic year. The application process is simple but if you have questions then please don’t hesitate to contact us directly.
The application process
- Contact us to register your interest in staying with Townsville Uni Houses. This is non-binding and is simply done via email to: townsvilleunihouses@outlook.com
- We will acknowledge your interest and if we have availability we will make further contact with you to officially offer you accommodation.
- Once you accept the offer we will draft the rooming accommodation agreement (see our tenancies page) and explain them in full to you.
- If you are happy with the terms of the rooming accommodation agreement then the document will be signed by both parties. A completed copy will be sent to you for your records.
- A holding deposit must then be paid in order to secure/hold your room. This is a necessary measure to help protect against the extremely seasonal nature of university accommodation demand. We will provide you with a receipt for the holding deposit payment. The holding deposit amount is four weeks’ rent (equal to the bond amount listed in the rental paperwork).
- All Done! Your accommodation will be ready for you to move in on the start date as listed in your tenancy agreement.
- Once you move in, we lodge your holding deposit with the RTA as your bond for your tenancy. You will receive a unique bond number from the RTA as confirmation that your bond has been lodged by us.
