  • After what felt like a lifetime of house hunting (but in reality was a fraction of the time I know some spend!), culminating in an absolute whirlwind sale, we have bought, settled on and moved into our dream home in Perth, and are still pinching ourselves.
    Join us for a moving vlog as we leave the rental market and embark on home ownership in Australia.
    Don't forget to send through your questions on the process, and I'll be sure to film a video talking through our experience buying a home here!
    Thanks for watching

    House looks great with your furniture. I think a stone feature would be nice to cover the brick in the lounge and it would be in keeping with the MCM vibe. 😊

    Congrats guys, house looks amazing! It would be great if you could explain how long you need to have been living in Australia before you can buy a property free from the foreign buyer rules. Also what minimum deposit percentage is typical in Australia, is it similar to the UK?

    I found your videos as I'm moving back to Perth from London with my British husband. I haven't lived there for almost 15 years so feeling a little mixed about it all, but your vids seem positive so there's some relief there :D
    Congrats on your home, looks lovely!
    We're also hoping to buy soon after we arrive and I have no clue how it all works. My questions are:
    - how many houses did you look at?
    - do you feel you had to compromise?
    - did you offer over asking price? if so, by how much?
    - did you offer on any other places? If so, were there lots of offers on those places?
    Thanks in advance,look forward to your next video!!

    Hi Cat, we are a young couple from the UK who moved to Perth last year on a working holiday visa, but we are looking to stay long term on a sponsorship visa. Do you need permanent residency to get a mortgage here? Do you need much renters experience to get a mortgage here? We are currently renting through Flatmates so have no official renting experience due to the crazy market here! Thanks :)

    • @JudiHodgkin
      @JudiHodgkin Před 3 měsíci

      You need to have been resident for at least two years before you can apply for a mortgage, regardless of whether you have residency or not. I’m not sure about needing to be a permanent resident, because I’m born Australian and my husband has Permanent Residency. We found that after the sale of our UK house and paying off that mortgage, we could be mortgage free, as long as we were prepared to go further out. We’ve ended up in an area of Perth that has lots of UK people living in it.

    I’m a fellow brit who has been in NZ the last 8.5 years but considering a move to Perth.
    What’s the pre approval process like in Aus? Broker vs direct to bank what would be your advice?
    Is the buying market as hot as rental market in Perth? 😃

      I’ve just started having these videos come up on my feed and I can’t believe this is a thing.
      So many of us who built this country are homeless and suffering extreme mental health and yet there’s pages like this just offering up our country to move to.
      I am in SHOCK.
      When will these people get that there’s no where to live and why the hell should citizens be living in tents so foreigners can move here.
      It’s disgusting and I hope our government ends it asap to save our own!!!
      As a Vietnam veterans daughter.. safe to say my dad is appalled he lost his mind for this nonsense.
      I feel like I’ll never get my sons and I a proper home.
      We live in a caravan park.
      It’s so disheartening and depressing seeing these videos.
      It’s like a kick in the guts and the light fades on us ever having a home.

      Are you ACTUALLY Australian or also a child/grandchild of an immigrant? You can just be happy for others while working your way up yourself. No need to belittle someone
