Settling in Australia

Home is where the money is

Home is where the money is

I’ve stumbled across an article in the Business Spectator and just couldn’t keep this to myself. There were two interesting things about it. How often do you read a piece that talks about … you? As many of you know I wasn’t born in Australia, I migrated here after a long history of traveling and [...]

Starting a new life in Australia, part 4

Starting a new life in Australia, part 4

I’m back to continue my “Life in Australia” series. I owe you a story about my second round of house hunting, which (surprisingly!) turned out to be tougher than the first one because housing affordability was very low.

Our price range was $230 – $260 a week and we just couldn’t find anything livable for that price,

I don’t know personally anyone who has suffered from those fires and yet start crying every time I think about this terrible nightmare.

Starting a new life in Australia, part 3

The levels of excitement were kind of hard to describe for a number of reasons.

First, the insecurity faded away. They have hired me and that means that my qualifications and experience count in this country. Having a job also meant feeling relieved money-wise; it meant that we stop eating away our savings and start living on the money we earn. And another reason to be happy was that I found that job before Christmas – people are taking it easy during the festive season and the moth after, many go away on holidays, so if I wasn’t lucky to get hired before Christmas, I could have spent another 2 months looking for a job. My partner also found a job, 4 days before Christmas and felt even luckier than I did :)

I didn’t have a chance to tell you about renting my first house here.

Here is what happened: being an Internet junky and spending a lot of time searching for vacant rentals online I expected to find the suitable house that way, but as I said, life is full of surprises. All the properties I rang to ask about were already taken or not willing to accept pets (and I was about to get my dog released from quarantine), so the search had to go on.

Before you say anything, let me explain: yes, this is a blog about real estate in Australia, and most of the articles here are talking about buying, renting or building a home. But it is also my blog and if you’re reading it, it means that you’re interested in my view of things.
