PAMD 20a
We are unable to commence any work on your behalf unless the instruction to do so is in writing on the official document being PAMD20a (enclosed). The document is divided into 2 sections, the 1st section being from pages 1 – 4. The form needs to be signed by all registered owners of the property.
This first section instructs us to perform certain services for you and most of the blanks have already been filled in by us. Whilst
all information contained therein should be read in detail, we do
ask that you note the following:
- This 1st section cannot be regarded as separate to or independent of the 2nd section and the whole document from page 1 through to 11 should be read, prior to signing anything.
- At point 4.2 on page 2, your attention is being drawn to the fact that this appointment is a continuing appointment and can only be cancelled by giving 90 days notice.
- Immediately below at 4.3 - Listed rent charge, the price you wish your home listed at is to be filled in
- At 6.3 on page 3 we have defaulted to a $350 maintenance spending limit.
- The document needs to be signed on page 4 by all registered owners of the home.
The 2nd section of the document contains and outlines your specific instructions to us such as where and how you wish the rent paid, special instructions regarding maintenance etc. Quite a bit of this information only becomes relevant once a tenant has been secured and the tenancy commences; however legislation requires this section to be signed on page 8, again by all registered owners prior to the commencement of the marketing.
Our fees and charges are
specified on page 5 of the document. A summary of the charges
are: (Please also note the once off charge of $25.00 on page 5
being the mandatory title search we must perform prior to
listing your home)
