Paying Rent

How can I pay my rent?

You can pay your rent in several ways. If you have any questions about paying your rent that is not covered on this website, please contact your Tenancy Officer.

Centrelink deduction

If you receive Centrelink payments, you can set up a Centrepay Deduction directly from your Centrelink payments. You can set this up yourself through Centrelink, or you can contact your Tenancy Officer to set up the deduction for you through Centrelink.
