The REAL COST of Living in Australia (Filipino couple under 30) 

Sa apps lang kami naghahanap ng inspections -- Domain, RealEstate, or Snug. Kung may malapit, book agad for viewing. Kung wala pa kayong profile sa apps na ito, create na po kayo para after the inspection ay mabilis na ang pagsubmit ng application kasi ready na yung profile. May guide naman sila kung anong kailangang requirements so hindi ko na iisa-isahin dito. Mejo hot yung rental market dito sa Brisbane kaya maraming competitors noong nag-iinspect kami. Between myself and my partner, siguro 15-20 apartments ang na-view namin and sa 2 lang kami natanggap. Make sure to inspect as early as 4 weeks before your current tenancy contract ends, para maraming options. Wag din mamili sa days of inspection -- kung may weekday viewing ay try niyo rin po puntahan kasi marami kalaban sa weekday. Tapos during the inspection, wag pasok at labas lang. Kausapin niyo yung property manager para makita nila na interested talaga kayo at maging familiar siya sa mukha niyo. Good luck!

@@KuyaRap thanks sa insight mo sir! Another question sir if you don't mind. Kinelangan niyo ba mag rent bid or offer ng higher rent para makuha niyo yung dalawa or asking price lang mga yon? Thank you!!

Ah hindi naman po. We just followed the listed price. Di ko sure if recommended gawin yung offering a higher price

2 bedroom 2 bath po 🙂

Hehe di pa po kami kasal. She’s working in telecomms. Before moving here, sa Meralco po sya in Ortigas. Regarding cost of living, in the 2 years na nandito kami, ang bilis ng pagtaas ng grocery prices but the salary increases are NOT enough to outpace inflation. I think the story is pretty much the same in other states. Pero I’m not focusing on that, instead nagfofocus ako on what I can control: saving, reducing expenses, creating more sources of income, etc. In the first place, ang habol ko naman dito sa Australia is the improved quality of life. 🙂

@@KuyaRap Thank you po. 💓

Tulog haha. Looking out for good opportunities pero wala masyadong trades recently.
