Long shot: "Holiday" rental required near Perth Aug/Sept

[200bhp]

Before I start with all the obvious options, I thought I'd ask here just in case someone happens to have something available.

We're aiming to arrive in Perth in August/September but with no job sorted we can be pretty flexible.

Anything considered from a caravan to a mansion.

Its a long shot, I know, but worth a try!

Just to completely and utterly hijack the thread, I have the same requirements although for now, probably for a few weeks.

No worries - What are you doing for transport at the moment?

[Progressive]

Apartment in the CBD so not bothering for now. Once this temporary accommodation is up, I'm not sure. Still not sure where I want to stay though however I'm sure it will become a bit more clear.

Depends how you feel, but I know a few people "house sit".

Basically living in someones house for a month or two and look after it while they are away. If there are pets, you usually get paid too.

Good points :-
Gives you an idea of all the areas.
Cheap.

Bad points :-
Living in someone elses place.
Moving every month.

I can get details if you like?

All the holiday rentals I know of are very expensive ($100 a night for a basic room, microwave and shower).

We're already registered with the two main house sitting websites. The trouble is that many owners prefer retired people or people already in Australia.
