Help : What comes as standard in apartments ?

Sold my house and will be moving to Sydney in about 3 months time. I have seen a few
2 bedroom apartments in Meadowbank/West Ryde/East Ryde/Eastwood area. It has all
these things

1) Built-in kitchen cabinets and counter top
2) Stove/grill
3) Built-in wardrobe in each room
4) Internal/shared laundry
5) Air conditioning/heater
6) Lock up garages/covered carpark

I wonder whether all the above are standard things that comes along with rented apartments
? Would appreciate any help.

Thanks

If it has builtins, aircon, carparking, laundry it will say so in the ad. Usually you get
"registered carspace" meaning uncovered, "carport", or "LUG" for Lock Up Garage.

Nothing comes with an apartment that isn't mentioned except carpet and window curtains. So
if it's not in the ad, it won't have it.

IN Sydney, expect to add $20-$30 for a garage.

As Zebee mentioned, most things will be mentioned in ads - but just to avoid wasting your
time, check *specifically* for refrig, laundry facilities, aircon/heating and built-ins if
these items are important to you. Older units will often NOT have built-ins and it can be
difficult/expensive to find wardrobes that you would actually put your clothes in . As
for the garage/carport issue - check!! I've seen some "carports" that were basically a big
eave/overhang coming off the roof. BTW, I'm in Brisbane.

Good luck in your apartment hunting!
