iwastakenbytheshadows Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Can anyone recommend any longer term rentals on a whv in Perth area? When I was out in March in Cairns we stayed at a place called Marlin Cove and I got chatting to a family by the pool that rented one of the self contained apartments on. A 6 month period for work. Anyone know of anything like this in WA? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windswept Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 We have let our properties for up to two years, and I have no doubt that other short term accom providers would be prepared to do so as well. Best thing you could do is get in touch with a few and ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwastakenbytheshadows Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 All the ones I e spoken to aren't interested. Surely there are others out there who have stayed for 6 months in one place on a whv that isn't a hostel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blossom Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Lots of landlord don't want short term tennents. They don't want to have to pay to advertise again in six months, have open inspections etc. Then have the risk of it being empty with no rent coming in. Generally landlords who do six month leases are planning on doing something else with the house fairly soonish. You would be best off going in to see the real estate agents. They will have a good idea about which of their landlords would go for a six month lease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windswept Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) When would you be wanting to rent from? Is it an issue of already being booked up? For example our next availability for any of our properties isn't until 24 Feb, so if you wanted something before then we wouldn't be able to help you. I do find it surprising that nobody you've contacted would be prepared to lease to you for six months, at least in terms of fully furnished accommodation - properties in this niche are used to renting for much shorter terms. Edit: I must add that blossom79 is spot on if you're talking about the standard unfurnished rental market however, if you're looking for an unfurnished (standard) rental property then you would be finding it difficult to find anywhere - landlords do prefer longer tenure.
