Rental Info
Just wondering if any of you out there can help us.......
When (if) we eventually get our visa we initially want to rent a flat in Sydney. I'm not sure what information the agent will need ie references etc. We're planning to have a bit of a break before looking for work, so not sure what the agents in oz need before a lease is given. Is there anything we can bring from the Uk that they will accept? ;) |

Look at www.realestate.com.au for properties.... Generally you will also need a bond of 4 weeks rent plus two-4 weeks rent up front If you need any help with areas etc then PM me Thanks Jonboy |

Thanks Barry and Carol
Good to know that it doesn't seem that difficult to rent somewhere without any history in Oz. Good luck with the move next month! |
Re: Rental Info
It should'nt be a problem once you have a job, they like to ring up your employer to confirm you are working.
I did'nt bring any references with me but were happy with my application once they confirmed I was working. You you gave them the rent for 6 months then they probably would'nt even care if you were working or not. The rental rate for a 2 bedroom apartment starts from $250+ in Sydney depending on the suburb. If you are looking for washing machines, etc. you can rent them at http://www.rentacentre.com.au/ |

Hi Rapitts
Thanks for the info and website - I've heard that there is a big rental warehouse in sydney (not sure where) that you can hire everything from. Is this the same company as the website link you gave us? :) |
