Tip: Some agencies will request that you answer questions that are outside of what is included in a standard application. If these are not marked as mandatory, we suggest answering if possible, as this can show how you are most suited for the property.

Apply by clicking the 1form button on a rental advertisement

• Applying through this button is the most common way to apply for a rental property with 1form.
  
  
  
• When this is clicked, it will take you to the online rental application in 1form and it will autofill details of the property and the property manager.
  
  
• If you need to add additional tenants to your application, this is done via the Occupancy step. Click here for more information. 

Note: Applying this way ensures the application is directed to the correct property manager. If you enter another email address, the correct property manager may not be notified that you have submitted your application.
