Perth, WA do or dont?
So, After trawling this forum ten years ago and receiving fantastic advice! Being a young dumb single man before my big move to Doha, Qatar, I'm hitting you guys back up for a new move.
Now is the time to move to Perth. I really need some do and don'ts. Moving now with a 3-year-old. Best areas to live? Best schools? Comparisons, price wise between Qatar and Australia? Apologies for the generic questions, guys. I'm also working my way through the forums :) |

The first big thing is have you checked you qualify for a visa?

Probably more a question of where you can obtain a rental. Very scarce at the moment.

Never realised WA were only offering 190’s if you have a job offer… that makes me sad :( it’s so difficult to get any sort of interview when you are overseas

Re: Perth, WA do or dont?
Best areas to live? Cottesloe, Dalkeith, Peppermint Grove, City Beach, Nedlands, Applecross
Best schools? Perth Modern, St Hilda's, Christ Church, Penhros, Methodist Ladies (note - only Perth Modern is state, the others are private) Do make sure you have a visa. Don't underestimate how far Perth is from anywhere else. |

As for the OP my advice would be join expat groups on social media. There are discussions like this several times a day so you are bound to get heaps of replies there aswell, then you will be able to gauge If it's the right move |

This:thumbs_up:. I'm reading posts everyday from Ireland/UK struggling to find rentals here. Was reading a post yesterday from someone claiming they are looking at 5 properties per day and can't get a rental with their B&B running out soon. This no doubt is the biggest hurdle in getting settled here so have some sort of plan to prepare for this.
