Today I will bring you a detailed introduction to renting a house in Canberra.
In recent years, Australian house prices, like domestic prices, are jumping up. But prices in Canberra are more popular than high prices in Sydney and Melbourne, and there is plenty of room for appreciation. At the same time, if settled in Canberra, located in the capital, the level of salary is very high, so whether it is renting or buying a house, whether part-time or full-time, it is of great help to ease the pressure of paying rent and paying off loans.
01 Geographic location
In Canberra looking for a house, the first thing is to determine the geographical location of their domicile. The direction of consideration is generally starting from the convenience:Is there a distance from the school? Is there a supermarket nearby? Is there a bus convenience? A popular place near city, Braddon/Turner/Reid area is under the coverage of City business circle, and within 20 minutes walk from ANU. Belconin District has another major business circle of Canberra, the convenience is also the first choice for renters, but also a bus drive of about 20mins. Of course, the cost of life is that the convenience of life is relatively expensive from other places.
The second-line rental location is a slightly more expensive place. From north to Gungahlin, south to Woden, the route is where the No. 200 bus express can radiate, and the light rail from Gungahlin to the center of the city has been opened, and it is easier to get from here to the center of the city.
The important reason for bus convenience as a necessary consideration is Canberra's weekend public transport system. In addition to the light rail cover and the area near the city center, if the rental location is too remote, weekends or legal holidays will face the embarrassment of an hour-by-hour bus. Car owners have more room for choice in the geographical location of rental housing.

The second thing to consider is the budget for buying a house and renting a house. The price of house will change because of the type, size, location and other factors, which is not easy here. But the basic rules follow that the more convenient the price is, the more expensive it is.

Dickson district: with Canberra Chinatown, Canberra Chinatown is the most concentrated area of Chinese food in Canberra, as well as the existence of supermarkets such as Woolworths, which is preferred by the majority of Chinese. Here house is the majority, so the price is slightly lower than the city center, the whole rent of a two-room or three-room house price of about 500.
