Guest samlee Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Can any one suggest what to do when we first arrive? Obviously we want to rent somewhere but are not too keen until we have actually seen the place and location. So whats the way to go? Hostels or short lets maybe. Any good web sites appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest James Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Hi Samlee, we are having the same problem at the moment, Hotels for a short term seem very expensive $ 200-300 per night???? I im hoping that we can arrange a long term rental before we leave Ireland. Regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ABCDiamond Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Look for furnished accommodation first, for about the first 3 weeks. You should find this for about $600pw, for a 3 or 4 bed house. That gives time to look around. It can be very quick to arrange unfurnished property, so 3 weeks me be OK. I know someone who booked a furnished place for 13 weeks, and got a much reduced rate. But they moved out after 8 weeks, as they finalised a house purchase in that time Long term rentals arranged without viewing can be risky. What area are you heading for ? A couple to start with..

Guest ironmaggi Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Any websites for Sydney? We've got the first 5 weeks sewn up but that might be complicated by cat coming out of quarantine and not being welcome! so will need to find somewhere in 30 days and unsure about unfurnished [camping out for shipment] or furnished [paying for storage] Heard a nasty rumour that customs are very behind at the moment...?

Guest Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 Hi, We are arriving in Adelaide mid-September. We need a 2-bedroomed (at least) place in a decent area. We will also have a cat following on shortly afterwards so need a pet-friendly place! We don't mind furnished or unfurnished and we are flexible about the length of let. Any ideas/recommendations would be very much appreciated! Thanks! Amanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dazmas Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 We are moving to Sydney in 2-3mths time. We have 3 children (11,8,5) and would like to know where the best suburbs to bring up children are. I was looking around the lower north shore as my office will be in North Ryde. Need somewhere near to their and the city but with a great beach lifestyle for the kids as well. Any ideas... PS Good public schools are very important to us!
