I just have a couple of quick questions on rental requirements in Sydney. From my understanding the rules can be quite strict.
- Are there any firm rules when it comes to income vs rental?
- I read somewhere that agents don't want places to be overcrowded and tend not to accept applications that will require bedroom sharing. We have two boys aged 4 and 6 that currently share a bedroom despite each having their own, so I was thinking of initially just renting a two bedroom place until we find our feet. Would this be allowed?
- We would like our son to start school as soon as possible after we arrive, but we require a 12 month lease and a utility bill before we can enrol him at the school. How do people get around this? We do have a family member that might be willing to view properties on our behalf if this would be allowed?
