Yeah 'cos it never gets cold over here either

We used Aarons in Kwinana-really pleased with them. did all our own packing but they provided boxes etc.

i was in the removals game until march this year in perth, the main three are keys bros, kents and Grace's and its Graces everytime,

watch out some firms dont just do furniture and they put all sorts in the containers with your furniture and if its not packed properly i hope you have good insurance

Hi,

We moved from Adelaide to Gold Coast 2 1/2 years ago and found that Crown was the cheapest quote we had.

Good luck with your move

Hi Dawn, such a bad time to sell a house in Perth, it's dire. People are dropping as much as $100,000. My inlaws had an auction, they wanted $520 tops for their house, it only managed to get to $420. My house has been up for 7 months, still no offer and i have dropped $70K.

Oh god Nu-Shooz, thats not good!!!

Which agent have you gone through? we will prob put ours up anyway and just hope for the best, not looking forward to the open days though...having to clear out all the time! how do agents work here, is it % were prob selling for about $380 but not sure how to work out selling fees then buying again fees, could do with getting some advice really!! just to hope we come out with what we started with. and do you have to pay any fees up front or all when house gone through cause we got no bloody savings!! :/

How are you anyway, i was talking to Suzy the other day, didnt know you knew each other too, small world

You should come and meet up with us LOL...we have a good laugh!

I bought this house in the boom, big mistake, but how would we know the market would end up like this.
If we get back what we paid then we will be lucky. But i ain't giving it away.
You don't pay anything up front to the agents, but they charge a hell of alot to sell...i got quotes around $11,000-$15,000 to sell. Bloody nightmare over here. Don't like to talk about it
