Guest DesperateHomer Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 We’re serious about emigrating to OZ and so I guess it’s sensible to ask the following of anyone who has had experience of recently moving over. If all goes ahead we’ll have approximately £220,000 sterling to buy a property (at current market rates). I’m fully aware of all the agent’s sites however I thought there’d be value in asking you guys the simple question of what could we get if we moved to either: Perth Melbourne Adelaide Tasmania Sydney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Are you thinking of 4x2? You probably wouldn't get much in Perth, although some suburbs are cheaper than others. Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Sorry thought you'd said $ not £ - you could get a 3 or 4 bed, depends where you want to live. I think property is cheaper on the east coast though (Sydney excluded) Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mary McNeilly-Jones Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Don't buy as soon as you get here. Rent and take your time. I came to Mandurah 72 ks south of Perth nearly 5yrs ago, because I knew it was the fastest growing town in Oz..... seriously. Prices have escalated here because everyone wants the WA life style. When I bought the medium house range for a 4x2 was 220K...... now it's 500k! WA is booming so if you don't know what changes are happening look at http://www.mymandurah.wa.com and for accommodation not all agents but private people try http://www.mandurahparkvilla.worldstays.com..... good luck Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The house prices are cheaper in Tas than anywhere is Oz cos the mainlanders don't like the Tas weather, but we're used to it right? Couldn't tell you bout anywhere else though.

Lynandsean Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Jo and Paul, same for us, will rent till we find the right place and know we are in the right area, would like to have new one built too as their new house styles are awesome and apparently you can save quite a bit that way too! although l dont know for sure. Gold Coast prices seem to be pretty cheap which really surprised me, although again, it depends which areas you choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
