Setting up your account for the first time

When you first sign up to Leaso you will need to add some details about your move and add your current rental.

Why we ask for your name

Leaso is a community of renters who are looking to get a head start on their rental searches. In order to ensure a safe and trustworthy community we require your full name. You surname is not displayed to others.

Add how you plan to use Leaso

During the onboarding, we're curious about your plans with Leaso. Sharing your intentions helps us tailor your experience for the best possible journey. There are three options to choose:

  • Exploring My Options: Just looking around? Take your time to discover potential homes.

  • Planning to Move: Ready for a change? Filter listings to match your timeline.

  • Currently Moving: In a hurry? We'll help streamline your search with timely options.

Adding your rental

Leaso thrives on the power of sharing. The first essential step is to list your current home. It's not just a requirement; it's your contribution to a community looking out for each other, making it easier for everyone to find their perfect next rental.

Open to move and date you must move by

Add an 'open to move' date and 'must move by' date. We ask this so we can not only align properties to these dates for you to see, but to also let other community members know about your intentions.

Lease type

Add the type of lease you currently have. Most leases in Australia will be fixed term or periodic leases or co-tenancy (which is usually shared housing).

Type of rental property

Choose from apartment / unit, house, townhouse or shared.

Details of your rental property

Add the rent per week, number of beds, baths and cars.

Add property features

Select from a range of common property features – be as accurate as possible.

Add photos

There is no restriction on the quantity of images for your listing. We recommend incorporating pictures of the rooms (beds and lounge), dining, kitchen, laundry and bathroom(s) and, if applicable, images of the backyard.

Verify your account

In order to verify your account you will need to upload proof of tenancy. Click here to see our guide.

Why we ask for your date of birth

It is a requirement of Leaso that you be older than 16 years old to use our service. We utlise your date of birth to confirm this.
