Out of Pod Experience

Heya mate got your message in game!

As a welshman who moved to sydney around 19months ago id be happy to provide advice!

I currently live in freshwater which is a suburb on the northern beaches and around 45mins out of the city.

As for your questions realestate.com.au is a trustworthy source of info regarding prices of properties as you can see rent is high depending on what area your aiming to live in.

I highly recommend the northern beaches as it will give you the best quality of life - easy access to the city (the ferry from manly takes around 20minutes and drops you right in the heart of the harbour) and easy access to the beautiful beaches of oz :)

As said, i feel the suburbs on the northern beaches will give you the best options for commuting and still being near the beaches without directly living in the city.

Places that are generally avoided are the western suburbs (sorry westies!) rent is cheaper but your away from the sea and the crime levels are higher and generally not as nice as elsewhere.

For rent you can expect to pay 450 aus dollars a week for a 1bed unit on the beaches but alas im unsure as to bigger properties sorry.

What visa have you got/are you getting?

Any other questions man id be happy to help out where i can "D
