It all depends on how quick you want to get to OZ, have a look at how quick houses are selling in your area to give you some idea as to when you should market yours. Most people advise not to sell before getting your visa's... just incase, but we didn't like where we where anyway, so even if the visa did fall through, we wanted to move from there anyhow.
Don't forget though, most lettings are for 6months contract.
Some friends of ours waited until they had their visa's before putting there house on the market and they waited nearly 11 months before it sold, so they were preparing to go on a rekkie of OZ to get visa's validated but luckily the house sold and then they were off, with 1 month to spare.
