Do I need to pay a deposit to secure MyCabin? When do I pay the Delivery and Bond?
Yes, we ask that you pay the first weeks rent as a deposit so that we can reserve your MyCabin and book in a delivery date. You pay the Delivery and Bond on the day that you receive the bond. The deposit then becomes your first weeks rent.
What if I change my mind? (before the cabin is delivered)
Life happens! We get that. So long as you let us know that you no longer need the cabin 72 hours before the booked delivery date we will refund your deposit.
Is there a minimum rental period?
Yes, 6 months. You can rent your MyCabin for as long as you want, this is just the minimum rental period. Even better, you don't need to call us if you want the cabin for longer. All we need is one months notice when you are finished with the cabin.
Can you give me a WINZ quote
Yes, we are happy to provide a WINZ quote for initial rent, bond and delivery. We are a registered WINZ supplier. We can also give you a benefit redirection form so that your weekly rent is automatically deducted from your benefit.
The property where I want MyCabin is rented or not owned by me. Is that ok?
Yes, usually that is ok, you simply need to confirm that you have permission from the owner of the property to have the cabin at that address. Housing NZ have particular requirements for cabins and so if it is a Housing NZ property we would need a letter from them confirming you have permission.
Can I buy MyCabin?
Unfortunately no, currently we only rent cabins as we feel it is important to try out the cabin first. Our experience is that people's circumstances often change more frequently than expected making renting a great option.
