Mara Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Faduv, if I can give you the best advice, if you need to job hunt when you arrive, then do not arrive until end January. Nothing happens in this country during January, it is the holiday month.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faduv Posted February 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Thanks Mara. The schools however start 1 Feb and we need to get rental in school zone. So we will need to sacrifice a bit. We will treat Jan as holiday...Cannot remember when last I had 4 weeks leave..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmNew Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) Must be such an amazing feeling , to move from application-themed posts, to making plans for arrival! Congrats again on your luckiest Friday 13th ever! Edited February 13, 2015 by EmNew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadEnoughofJuju Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 Congratulations, and totally agree with Mara. Jan is probably the worst month in Australia business wise. Most places only open around the third week because the schools go back so late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faduv Posted February 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 How will the hunt for rentals be in Jan? As we need a rental for school...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino1 Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Hi Faduv, my wife looked at a couple of available rentals in January and found a suitable home in a good school zone. You should not have a problem finding rentals in this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansaPlease Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Yep, some people take the time to change their circumstances in January, new year, new beginnings, leave for overseas, all that sort of stuff, so there should still be movement in January in terms of rentals.
