Share Accommodation
What is a share accommodation?
The best place to enjoy your student life in Australia!
Share accommodation is one of the most popular alternatives of accommodation for students or overseas travellers mostly because there is no contract and all the bills are shared.
It is a great way of meeting people if you have just arrived in Australia. Also, you can learn different cultures and new skills like cooking and cleaning.
At share accommodations usually the room is shared with one or more people and all other rooms (kitchen, bathroom, living room, etc) are shared with everybody that lives at the place.
What are the benefits?
- meet people from all around the world and experience their culture
- improve your English
- don't worry about furniture and electrical equipments (mostly are fully furnished)
- split the bills and save some money
- have the help of your share accommodation manager with any issue you may need (like train timetables, shool location, etc) - note: not all share accommodations have this service
What are the cons?
- sharing your room
- dealing with lots of people that sometimes can be not easy going
- following the pre determined rules set by other housemates
- paying the so called bond - an amount of money (usually two weeks rent) that you have to provide as soon as you move in
- having a minimum stay of four weeks (average)
