Hi Tomo, went to bed before I got a chance to see your message sorry.
We like you have paid for everything up front which makes it a little tough on the bank account!
Are you planning on making another trip before you ship everything? Have you visited the East coast at all? We never made it to Perth but have heard it to be very popular.

FROM TOMO
Hi Tomo
Well, where do I start? Our DREAM is to buy a plot of land and build our 1st home (hubby wants to do this a couple of times till we reach our 40's and then build our dream home or we buy it now and have a small mortage)!
We are hoping to be mortage free as soon as we land there and have made a few enquiries about how much it would cost to build the house up to what they call 'lock up' - which is basically building the house and putting the roof on and windows installed, we will do the rest, wiring, plumbing, kitchen, bathroom, decorating etc. Its not that easy because you apparently can't just build your own house you have to do a course!
In order to do this we are hoping that hubby will have a job in the trade and I will be in charge of family life and getting my hands dirty with helping to build our 1st home, sounds like a recipe for DIVORCE!!! As an Estate Agent, my duty will be to see what properties
sell and what people expect of new builds - they are still quite dated in OZ!
As for you, I trully believe its worth you exploring a little more than Sydney and Perth. We are not big city people so have opted for a more rural setting but there are some wonderful places to see along all of the East coast, I personally find Queensland a lot more 'touristy' which I guess is great if want that sort of thing?!
