Hi all, we are a family of 4 looking to re-locate to Perth during the next year, certainly by 2012 is the aim. We visited in March and stayed in Somerly, Clarkson which we found fairly good location wise. Does anyone have any advice re the order of things, immigration is sorted as my fiancee and the kids are Australian citizens and I have PR. We have a house to sell in the UK and would need to find jobs out there, also a primary school for our eldest. What order did everyone who has made the move do things? Also can anyone recommend any decent suburbs and primary schools, we would also need a nursery for our youngest. Does anyone know of any good sites to look at for furnished rentals in Perth? Is it possible to organise a rental property from the UK so you have somewhere to go straight to on arrival? Can anyone advise on furniture costs out there as that is another debate, would we pack up the house and ship it or just sell everything before we leave? Soooooo much to think about, my brain is overloaded! Any help or advice would be most appreciated! Thanks :
