Cheap Accommodation Australia

Australia has a very good standard of accommodation and landlords and real estate agents are required by law to ensure your safety and security.

During your stay in Australia you may consider renting a house or room. Many students prefer to share a house or apartment with other students, whereby all tenants share the costs and responsibility for cooking, cleaning and maintaining the premises.

You can rent furnished or unfurnished houses, apartments / townhouses and rooms from a real estate agent or privately. You will have to sign a lease (contract) with the agent or owner for the property. Leases are usually for a 6 month minimum contract period.

If you, for example, searched for accommodation and found a place that you were interested in on the internet, most agents will expect you to pick up the key and visit the house to inspect it yourself. However, AA can help you to find the accommodation that you are interested while you are still abroad.

As a temporary visa holder you may be eligible to buy a house or flat and apply for credit in Australia.

Please check out our Australia forum for finding a flat or house in Australia.
