For all off-shore applications made to UniLodge, the property will be waitlisting these applications until such time as an announcement that the borders are opening.
So effectively, the property will not be offering contract leases, requesting security deposits or bonds or any advanced rent.
Property will be filing all applications in date order and when it's announced that international travel will begin again, the property will proactively reach out to all applicants and progress their applications to bookings.
