Although your accommodation is booked for the first few days, securing long-term accommodation will be your own responsibility. During your orientation programme, the housing options available will be discussed with you and you will be advised of the various organizations where you can go for help in finding accommodation.
You may find it more convenient to obtain accommodation in the institution where you are studying. Alternatively you may prefer to rent a room in a house or flat with other students. The various types of available accommodation are listed below. The cost of accommodation will vary according to the facilities provided and the location.
The types of housing available include:
boarding houses
shared houses or flats
residential colleges
rented houses or flats.
Boarding houses: These are a combination of single and shared rooms which are rented out individually. There are two types of boarding houses available:
i) Self-cooking (you do your own cooking in a communal kitchen). Cooking and eating utensils are often provided.
ii) Full board (meals are cooked for you).
Facilities in a boarding house usually include: fully furnished room, sheets and towels, shared bathroom, gas and/or electrical appliances.
Shared houses or flats: Shared accommodation is available when somebody has a spare room in their house or flat which they wish to rent. The rent and costs of gas and electricity are shared equally between the people sharing the flat. Each person is also expected to help clean and tidy the shared living space (e. g. kitchen, bathroom, living room). People sharing a house or flat are also responsible for cleaning their own room, doing their washing and cooking their own meals.
Residential colleges: Residential colleges are a feature of many academic institutions in Australia. These colleges are located on campus or very close to the campus and usually provide single bedrooms, shared bathroom, all meals and sheets and towels.
Rented houses or flats: These are usually for a longer term. Most Flats are unfurnished and do not contain any furniture except a stove. Houses are considerably more expensive than flats, and rent varies with size, condition and location. The costs of electricity and gas are additional. When renting a house or flat you can either sign a lease or enter into a written tenancy agreement with the landlord.
Landlords and managing agents usually require tenants to deposit an amount of money, as a bond. A bond is kept by the landlord (or in some Australian states by a Bond Board) as a protection against the tenant damaging the rented property or moving out without giving notice. If you have kept the place clean and not damaged it, you are entitled to, have the bond refunded when you leave.
Rules for Renting or Leasing
1) All agreements with landlords should be in writing. Make sure you fully understand any agreements before you sign.
2) Always inspect the place carefully before you move in and keep a list of any items that were damaged by previous tenants. This prevents problems when you claim the return of bond money.
3) For furnished fiats, always compile a list of furniture and equipment. A copy should be held by you, and a copy held by the landlord or real estate agent.
4) Always get a receipt from the landlord/agent when you pay rent and keep these receipts and any agreement in a safe place. Make sure you have a receipt for any bond money you have paid.
5) Always give notice in writing at least one rental period before you intend moving out and retain a copy of the dated letter yourself.
You cannot cook your own meals in full-board boarding houses or in ______.
