Moving from Perth to NSW
 

Hi guys,
After 4 years living in Perth we have decided a state change is in order! I am after people's advice and wise words as to where we could live. Once we have sold our house in Perth we are coming over. My husband is a Print Finisher and we need help to find where the big printing companies are. I also have 2 children and 10 and 8 that would need a good school. I am hoping to transfer with the company I work for here. I have done lots of research on house prices etc but I have no idea if the suburbs are any good!!!! I flew over to Sydney for the Easter break on my own and drove up to Port Macquarie as we were originally going there but I think my hubby would struggle getting work there. So we are now thinking closer to Sydney but would like to be closeish to the beach!!!!;)

Please help!!:thumbsup:

Has Perth ran it's course ... ?

Why the move ... ?

The reason I ask is that we are weighing our options up too. Not exactly sure whether Perth has ticked all our boxes so far ...

PS Can't help with Sydney ... sorry :huh:

In a nutshell we are bored!!!! I miss Sunday shopping, I miss places being open after 6.00pm, I miss greenery.... Am sick of seeing land sales where ever you go, am fed up of the scrubland that is everywhere and we just can't seem to settle here!!!!! We always said if Perth didn't work out we would change states first before considering moving back to England. We have hit that point so we think why the hell not!!!!!

Can relate to that 100% and sounds a good move going interstate rather than chucking the towel in altogether.

I think we'd give Melbourne a go if it came to it, possibly the Gold Coast.

Good luck ...

I think the water restrictions scare us away from Melbourne... We are going to drive up to the Gold Coast and have a look. As long as hubby can get a good job we will be happy!!!

Good luck to you too:thumbsup:

Erm, I am confused... where has my thread gone :confused:

Re: Moving from Perth to NSW
 

just spent time in Sydney and the gold coast and they are very strict with water there. Much more noticable than anything we have here in Perth

If you want to live near the beach in Sydney you will need big money. Have you done a search on www.realestate.com.au ?

Hi there

Depending on your budget and where your hubby can get work (two huge determining factors) you might want to consider the Central Coast of NSW. Look around Gosford and the Brisbane Waters area for cheaper options than Sydney, yet with proximity to shops etc as well as being close to the water. If you have to work in Sydney, you can always catch the train.
