Hi there
Just after some confirmation that this is the right procedure.
I've just purchased a unit with existing tenants on a lease that has now rolled over to periodical.
Although the property is not due to settle until end of July, I've already contacted the tenants and issued a 60 day rent increase and a 90 day termination (as of settlement at end of July of course) for the current lease. So they will effectively have about 2-3 weeks extra notice on top of the required 60 and 90 days.
I've also offered a short fixed term lease instead and we agreed upon the original rent for the first 60 days (as per the notice) and the increased rent for the remainder of the lease.
My question is, do I need to do up two leases? One for the first 60 days at the original rent - and another for the remainder at the new rent?
The standard lease agreement template from Fair Trading doesn't seem to have a section to include two rent rates and periods and I want to make sure that I do this the right way as this is my first time self managing a property.
