Rental information inquiry. If international students are still in China and want to rent their own houses, it will be more convenient to find information through the rental sections of some Australian Chinese forums.

Location. Generally, we should focus on these aspects: near the school, near the bus station, near the train station and near the supermarket. Besides, you should also ask the bus number, how many stops are there from school to downtown, and how long it will take to get there. Of course, you must consider living in the city.
I still live in the suburbs. Generally speaking, the apartments in the city are relatively small, but it is convenient to go to school, work and go shopping. The corresponding price will be higher than that in the suburbs.
Much higher. If you live in the suburbs,
That is to say, besides considering the traffic problem, we should also consider the environment around the house and who the neighbors are. Of course, every city will have good areas and bad areas. International students can investigate in advance before going abroad. Take Adelaide as an example, the recognized good areas are the east and southeast, with high terrain, beautiful scenery and good public security.

The way to rent a house. You can rent a house directly from the landlord or the second landlord, or rent a whole house by yourself or with friends to be the second landlord yourself. If you rent only one room, you should generally ask about the furniture facilities provided by the house (beds, tables and chairs, kitchen utensils, refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, etc.). If you want to rent the whole house, there are many problems to consider. Generally speaking, the house is empty, so you need to buy furniture, open a telephone or network, and transfer the electricity and gas bills to your name …

Rent. Rent is an important issue to consider when renting a house. Generally, if you rent a house, the way to pay the rent is all-inclusive and share the expenses (water, electricity, internet access, etc. ) or the landlord pays part of the expenses (such as water and electricity), and all other expenses are shared by all tenants. If it is a whole rental house, the tenant needs to pay electricity, gas, internet and telephone charges, and the landlord needs to pay part or all of the housing expenses such as water. So be sure to ask before renting a house. In addition, there are issues of deposit and rent. Generally, renting a house directly from the landlord or the second landlord will not sign a very formal contract.
(To be on the safe side, it is strongly recommended), the landlord will usually ask you to pay a deposit, usually 2 or 4 weeks' rent. Rent is usually paid for two weeks or a month at a time, and the landlord is consulted. You have to sign a contract with the landlord and the intermediary to rent the whole house. The contract should specify the deposit, rent, how to deduct the deposit when returning the rent, etc. In order to protect their legitimate rights and interests and reduce disputes between the two sides. In addition, remind friends who rent houses to ask the landlord to give you a receipt every time they pay the rent.
Generally speaking, the safest way to pay rent is online transfer, and the time and amount will be clearly shown on the bank statement at the end of the month.

And the landlord has the right to inspect the house, but he must make an appointment at least 7 days in advance and inform the tenant. If they come whenever they want and violate our normal life, we can ask them to complain. We should fight for our reasonable rights. 2.
If there is similar damage to water pipes, air conditioners and water heaters, it is necessary to inform the rented house in time, and they will repair and compensate as soon as possible. If you rent the whole lawn, you must make it clear in advance whether the landlord is in charge or you are in charge. If the pet owner wants to confirm with the landlord, it is ok. If you are visiting Australia for the first time, you can ask the landlord if you can provide a pick-up. 6. Finally, remind the girls that when renting a house, you should ask the door lock in particular if you can lock it from the inside. Many rooms in Australia are unlocked. International students are generally not used to it. Personal privacy and safety are the most important. Please ask before renting a house.
