ali Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Don't know much about caravan sites, but hubby travels around alot and says that some caravan parks seem to be used as low cost housing rather than holiday lets - so you may need to look around when you get here.

ali Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Hiya Not sure really as we fixed ours up before we came. We tried http://www.movetoperth.com - it has some furnished rentals on that. Try to negotiate, we got a reduced rate as we stayed 12 weeks. A bit expensive at $625 pw, but we didn't have any bills to pay in the 3 months, and we got internet access which was invaluable. Having said that we also stayed Jan-March which was the height of summer. I tried to contact a couple of real estate agents before hand but they were'nt very helpful Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wackyjacky Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 thanks ali for help, think we will leave it till we get there now. When we do go to agent to rent what sort of documents , deposit etc will we need? we are looking at renting for 3 months approx . thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 We fixed up a furnished rental before we arrived, didn't need to do anything other than pay a weeks rent in advance as a deposit and a bond which was returned to us when we left. Where are you thinking of staying? Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali HI Ali we are being picked up by a friend who will put us up for a few days while we look for furnished rental in joondalup sort of area any suburd around there really . thought it would be better to wait to rent when we get there beginning july 07 as we would get to see the place for ourselves , really need furnished as not bringing any furniture as its all pass its sell by date! Do you no of any good rentals would be until we find house to buy hopefully a couple of months . THanks Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
