Guest Jillie14 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Try Ozrentals as they have quite a few South of the river. Also have a look on Stayz too. I would recommend that as you have children you rent short term for at least 6-8 weeks as it can take you that long to secure a long term rental. Start looking on the REIWA site now before you come out in order to identify potential long term rentals in the right area and register your interest. Once the date to view comes up the agent will contact you to confirm viewing time and date - be warned as you will often only get 24 hours notice if you are lucky - sometimes it can be the same day! Make sure you fill in your mobile no and e-mail address as agents quite often contact you by text. You can only apply for most by attending the viewing and getting an application form from the agent at the viewing, however if you do see some properties that you really like on REIWA you can sometimes contact the agent directly and "do a deal" to sign for the house without seeing it if you are prepared to sign up for 12 months. When you make your long term rental application be prepared to pay 6 weeks rent up front (2 weeks rent 4 weeks is bond) and send as much information in with your application as you have to hand as this could give you the edge over other applicants. I sent copies of the following: - UK Bank Statement - showing money in Oz Bank Statement - showing money in Receipt for short term rental property which we had paid 7 weeks rental for up front Wage slips Copy brochure of my house for sale in UK - shows that you have a nice house and look after things Be prepared to work hard to get your house though - I did 27 viewings, 7 applications and got the 3rd one - well worth all the hard work though I can assure you! If you need anything else just let me know and good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
