So we thought we'd try to look for places to live around here. The commute would be about 35 minutes into Central and another 10 minutes for Adam to get to Pyrmont. So not too bad...We went back on Saturday for the official 'inspections'. This was pretty crazy. You get 20 to 30 people all turning up at the same time, there's just not enough property available at the moment. Bit annoying as London was completely the other way round when we were trying to rent out our place! You have to be there ready to make a decision on the spot and be the first to get to the agent with all the forms filled out, references, proof of previous addresses, identification and a deposit. Most of them will have gone by Monday morning.
We were ready to do all of that but unfortunately it seems you pay a big premium for the beach. We were looking at properties higher than our initial budget, but none of them were all that great. And hardly any had air con, which I think we really need for the summer.
We went over to see some friends in Mosman Saturday evening, had a lovely time with them and fantastic barbeque! They told us where the shops and things are in Mosman, so we like the idea of that a bit more now. Might have a look at that area again instead.
