In terms of quality of life comparative to the cost of living, Perth offers a very comfortable lifestyle, often ranking as one of the most liveable places in the world. However the city and indeed the state has become rather expensive over the last few years as a result of the mining boom.
Renting
Availability of rental properties tends to be seasonal with the highest demand for rental properties being in the summer months of November through to March. On average, around half of the available properties are usually rented out within two weeks of being advertised. Properties are advertised usually in local and Statewide newspapers and online at sites such as realestate.com.au, Domain 或 REIWA.
There is a wide range of rental options available in Perth – from basic units to luxury mansions, short or long term and furnished or unfurnished.
The median rent for a three bedroom house in Perth is around $380* per week. Like most cities, the closer to the CBD or the beach the more expensive it will be to rent a house or flat.
