Hello,

I've contacted, via email, a couple relocation agencies in Brisbane for costs on services to assist in finding a home & schools. I'm wondering if anyone in this community has used this type of service, which company and any feedback on the experience.

Thanks in advance.

Sherry

 

Hi SherryT,There is Relocation Brisbane Bayside services (Rudi) that are on this forum that may be able to offer some valuable information. Our advice to people that have stayed with us is to find short term rental accommodation, close to where you may be working etc it will then give you the opportunity to look around and get a feel for the different suburbs, schools etc without making hasty decisions (there is nothing better than 1st hand experience and "Gut Feeling"!) Some websites that may help with information regarding Brisbane, surrounding areas etc is:- www.brisbaneinformation.com.au , www.visitbrisbane.com.au , www.lifeinbrisbane.com.au these all offer information regarding schools, employment, areas etc Another website which will help with distance of travel etc is www.whereisit.com.au We always advise our guests is to do as much research as you can regarding areas, schools, crime etc and employment before you arrive as pictures on the internet are very different in reality. Good luck with everything
