Default Long term furnished accommodation

I am looking for long term furnished accommodation possibly for six months in Sydney. I looked at domain.com.au and property.com.au but they deal mostly with unfurnished. Do any one know good website for furnished/part furnished accommodation in Sydney.

Long term furnished accommodation is not very common in Australia.

I know some, reasonably priced, in SEQLD but that's a bit too far a commute for you

If you are looking for long term it may be cheaper to get an unfurnished and then buy cheap furniture to put in there.

Furnished places are not common in Australia, usually only holiday let type of places, which means much more expensive than your average rent.
Probably best to get an unfurnished place and buy cheap furniture, places like fantastic furniture do whole house packages for very cheap and it will do for the time you’re here.

You can get a homestarter package from like $1999, which includes all the furniture you need.

Here is the site,

Hi
If you don't fancy buying furniture you can always approach short term rentals to see if they will offer you a good discount for a longer stay, this isn't uncommon and many company's will happily reduce the price a good few dollars for you.
Remember in most furnished homes all your utility bills are included so cost wise it may be beneficial to you, especially if it's over summer and you use the air-con a lot! lol
Good Luck
