Renting 101: How To Make A Landlord Want You

Surprisingly, we have a lot in common with the rental market… we’re both in crisis xx How are we supposed to get our rental applications over the line when it's SO competitive, and we're lining up for an hour to inspect a 4x4 shack that comes with a family of pet cockroaches?!  This week on Things You Didn't Learn In School, we're diving into Renting101 with multi-award-winning Belle Property Real Estate Agent Fleur Schrader. We wanted someone from the inside who knows what landlords actually look for in tenants, how to stand up for your rights, and what NOT to do in a rental inspection.

Introducing: Things You Didn't Learn In School

’I’ve lost track of how many times I use algebra each week. What a lifesaver!’… said no adult ever. We learned a lot of things in school that we’ve never actually needed to know in real life. Meanwhile, important things like how to nail a job interview, how to do taxes, and whether buying or renting is a better financial option were conveniently left off the curriculum. That’s where we come in. Comedian Bec Melrose and Mamamia’s Emily Vernem are here to walk you through the lessons you’re too embarrassed to admit you still don’t know. Things You Didn't Learn In School is in session next week!  THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia Mamamia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land we have recorded this podcast on, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation.
