Thanks everyone for your reply’s! It really does help! We do have an area in mind as we’ve already spent time over in oz. we’re looking at south Perth! South freemantle, Coogee beach but are open to other areas.is it possible to get short term accommodation as we really don’t want to sign a 6-12 moth rental agreement . I presume most people use a mortgage advisor as we have in the uk! If so any recommendations of advisors in the Perth area would be great! And also any other areas for us to think about We’re just looking for somewhere nice to bring our babies up! Thanks again kev
