Guest SidSnot Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) G'day all, I'm an expat who has been living in Adelaide for 15 years. I am moving to Perth in the next couple of months & would appreciate any advise on a suitable suburb to live. I am a single male so will be looking for a small one or two bedroom unit at an affordable price. I am not a 'suburb snob' but I don't want a real derro area. At the moment I live by the beach near Adelaide so similar would be nice although my main seeking criteria is price (ex wife took all my $). I will be doing FIFO work 2 or 3 weeks on, 1 week off, so it needs to be in a safe area as I will be away from home the majority of the time. I am also hoping to travel to Perth to checkout areas, work, rent a unit, storage, shipping etc etc and will need some cheapish short term (2 / 3 weeks) accommodation. Just wondering if any expats have a room they would consider renting to a 40 something year old expat for awhile whilst I'm on my Perth reconnoissance mission in the near future? Thanks in advance.

verystormy Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Have a look on gumtree for short term rentals A lot of FIFO guys live around the mandurah area as it is affordable to be by the beach which generally in Perth it isn't. Be aware that apartments / units can be more expensive than houses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SidSnot Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thank you for your reply verystormy. Good old Gumtree, I forgot there was more than 'personals' on there Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
