Hopefully we will be joining WA later this year or beginning of next. We have noticed the rental market is quite high for WA, especially the area's we are intererested in which are freemantle and surrounding. We currently live in dorset and want to be near a beach as this is what we are more used too.

Does anybody know of any accomodation around these area's that are reasonable rent for us expats, we would not mind living in a caravan (trailer park) as long it is clean just dont want to pay alot of rent as soon as we get their otherwise it starts eating into your savings.

any advise please

Caravan parks along the metropolitan coast have gradually been turned into housing, but there are still a few around, such as this:

All sorts on here: http://www.lookatwa.com.au/Accommoda...il2.php?id=267

There's also backpackers/youth hostels to try. Look on gumtree for house shares. I also see quite a few notices at shopping centres and at uni. The uni semesters here run from Feb-June and July-Nov, so suburbs near unis have a lot of changes around these times.

Would a mod please move to the main Australia area?

Only just seen it, but I'll move it now - can you report any more in the wrong place as then they'll get spotted quicker! Thanks

OK, what do I do, just pm you or one of the other mods? I didn't want to "report" the post
