Short, task-by-task guides to how PlaceNest works: what you can do, what happens next, and who makes each decision.

How enquiries and conversations work, what in-app notifications show, and what PlaceNest e-mails do and do not contain.

Signing in, setting up your profile, identity verification, notifications, billing, and how to contact PlaceNest Support.
How to schedule a video meeting from a property enquiry or a Services enquiry, accept or decline one, change the time, cancel it, add it to your calendar, and when you can join.
Short answers to common questions about accounts, advertising, searching, messages, applications, agencies, privacy and getting help — with links to the full guides.
Where PlaceNest's suburb, locality, postcode and nearby-places data comes from, and the licences it is used under.

What the official rental figures on the Rental market insights page mean, where they come from, and why some figures are shown as unavailable.
How to apply through PlaceNest: saving a draft, what you are asked for and why, documents, referees, who may see your application, and submitting or withdrawing it.
What each application status means, how to respond to a request for information, who makes the decision, and what an outcome does and does not mean.
How a lease transfer advertisement works: the outgoing tenant screens, the landlord or managing agent decides, and what selection in PlaceNest does and does not mean.
Set up your lister profile, create an advertisement for a whole property or a room, choose who is advertising and what signed-in members may see, then publish and manage it.
Everything an agent or property manager needs: your professional profile and agency, advertising, the application process from submission to tenancy documents, and what PlaceNest does and does not do.

How to advertise a private or shared room, what an existing tenant can and cannot do when screening applicants, and when the landlord or managing agent gets involved.
How to advertise a parking space, what renters see, and how enquiries work. Parking uses enquiries and messages, not applications.
How applications are grouped, how to review them, ask for more information, shortlist and decide, and how referrals to a landlord, managing agent or property owner work.
How a tenancy agreement and condition report are prepared, issued, reviewed and signed in PlaceNest after an application is approved or selected, and what an executed document means.
