Renting a House / Property in Australia
Unurnished Rentals
The property rental market in Australia is not very flexlible.Unfurnished Properties are usually only available for stays of 6 months or more.
Landlords frequently require you to sign a tenancy agreement that will last 12 months.
Yyou should expect an "unfurnished" rental to be equipped with at least a cooker.
Rental properties are advertised by many real-estate agents and can be found in local newspapers.
Adding to the expense of renting is the bond. Nearly all landlords will require you to pay a bond worth 4 weeks rent. The bond is deposited with the State and, assuming you do not damage the property, is returned at the end of your tenancy.
