arriving in oz and buying a house staight away

hi just thought, my husband is going for a research trip in may to find good suberbs in the sunshine coast area. We plan to move out there next year after xmas and was wondering as we would like to buy a house staight away, with a morgage, can we?? or do we have to build up some credit rating first?. We will have at least 50% as deposit. We are hoping that we do not have to use our credit rating here in the uk as we have defaulted on a few things recently, so hopefully morgage companies in oz do not look at our uk credit report.
If they don't can we buy staight away as hubby has a job sorted?

any help appreciated

Or how about can we buy before we get there? Really keen not to waste money on rent - would rather buy and move straight in and then spend a year or so exploring and travelling etc before really deciding where we want to be.

Am I right in thinking I have to buy a new house if buying from abroad? If so, does anyone have any good links to new build websites?

Nope, am busily scanning around the reply bit and cannot find any flashy emoticons, just the 'Post Icons' box that is dead boring

Must be my set-up, sulking now!

Hi Imp,
I'll tell you how as I cant bare to see a grown man cry,

To get the lovely smilies you have to:

Go to top of page, on left hand side click on 'user cp'
Click 'edit options'
Go right to bottom of page to 'misc options'
Click on box and choose 'enhanced interface - full WYSIWYG editing'
Then click 'save changes'

Then hopefully you should have all these wonderful smilies

Great aren't they?

Chelle, I thought you knew how to get the smilies this way.
We found out how to do it that day when we were on here learning all sorts of things, you remember the thread got upto 331 posts long, all utter twaddle!!

Maybe Tim could make a 'sticky' post with it on for all the new members.

We have been here for 4 months and had a mortgage approved yesterday.
All we supplied was a copy of our passports, driving licenses and a bank statement. We have got what they call a low doc mortgage where as long as you have a good size deposit........they will lend you almost anything...............we have been offered much more than we need and more scarily much more than we can afford.
