Magic Education, a professional education institution specializing in studying abroad in Australia, is headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, with branches in Changsha and Tianjin, aiming at providing students with study abroad consultation, study abroad planning, visa application and immigration application, and realizing your dream of studying abroad!

Recently, I heard many friends who want to study in Australia say that they feel that the cost of studying abroad is high and they don't want to add burden to their families. However, in the face of the problem that living in a student dormitory apartment is too expensive, I want to find a homestay to fight for character and rent a house by myself, but I have to squeeze time to see the house if I want to submit an application. I really don't know what to do. As a result, everyone wants to know the situation there in advance, make preparations and make the most suitable choice.

How to rent a house in Australia? Which room type should I choose? Let's take a look at the inside story of studying abroad and renting a house with Jason!

How to choose to rent a house?

The most important thing in renting a house is to meet the demand. First of all, you need to know what kind of house you want to rent (such as an apartment or a house), whether you live by yourself or share it with others. The next step is to know whether you have other needs, such as parking spaces, or kitchens and living rooms.

Other factors to consider include transportation, distance from school and whether you can pay the rent.

How much does it cost to rent a house?

The rent in Australia will be the same as that in our great motherland, and it will vary according to different cities. Of course, this is also related to the different types of accommodation. Every city also has areas with high rents and areas with low rents.

Take Melbourne as an example, there are famous schools such as RMIT, MOU and monash, and the average rent in the downtown area ranges from 400 USD/week to 65,438 USD+0,000 USD/week.

Take chestnuts for example: Students in Melbourne usually choose Fitzroy North (Northcote) or Richmond (Prahran). In addition to renting websites, you can also brush some social networking sites, such as forums, Facebook, Twitter, etc. This is also a good idea.

What is a lens?

Lens, or lease agreement, is a lease contract signed before you move in, which includes your lease term, monthly rent, landlord information, and information and conditions of the house. Be sure to read carefully before signing the contract!

What is Bond?

That is, the deposit, also known as the deposit. The deposit is usually four weeks' rent, but it varies according to the situation in each state.

room type

The first type: shared/single room type.

Shared rooms: multiple rooms. Two or more people live in a bedroom, and the kitchen, bathroom and living room are shared.

Single room: single room. There is only one person living in a dormitory, and the kitchen, bathroom and living room are all used.

The second type: suite room type

Suite room is the most common room type in British and Australian dormitories. The basic equipment of the bedroom is similar to that of the shared room, but it has its own bathroom, which can be understood as a standard room with one person and one bathroom.

The bathroom, sink and shower room of a suite are usually in one space. Generally speaking, suites are the most common and popular among students. The price is slightly higher than the shared house, but the area is also slightly larger, about 13- 15 square meters. Have their own independent bathroom, life is also very convenient. Some dormitory companies will provide double suites with single bathrooms. The same facilities, bed area and room area are relatively large, about 20 square meters.

The above two rooms are rooms with kitchens, and the number of people who use the kitchen in a suite is usually around 3-6. Generally speaking, the facilities in the kitchen will include stoves, range hoods, ovens, microwave ovens, tables and chairs, refrigerators, lockers, trash cans and so on. For dormitories with carpeted rooms, the kitchen is generally equipped with a public vacuum cleaner, while for dormitories with wooden floors, there are brooms and mops.

In addition, some dormitories have washing machines, dishwashers and televisions in their kitchens. For dormitories without washing machines in the kitchen, there is usually one or several public laundry rooms for everyone to use.

The third type: studio room type

A one-bedroom apartment can be simply understood as a single apartment with a kitchen. Different from ordinary one-bedroom, one-living room, the kitchen and bathroom of the studio are in an open space. Because all kinds of infrastructure have been designed in the room, most studio rooms will not have more independent public spaces, such as living rooms.

Although they are all studios, the number of people allowed to stay is different according to the size of the house and the size of the bed. Generally speaking, this room type allows up to 2 people to stay. The area depends on the design of different companies. Generally speaking, the smallest studio is about 20 square meters.

Most dormitory buildings will have a public area for everyone to relax and entertain. The infrastructure of public areas usually includes sofas, televisions and vending machines. Some dorms will provide billiards, table tennis, piano, game machines and other entertainment facilities, and some luxury dorms are also equipped with gyms, cinemas, swimming pools and even KTV. Most of the entertainment facilities in the dormitory are free for students.

Huxing: The difference from Studio is that the kitchen and bedroom are separated by walls.

Generally speaking, beds have the following dimensions:

1. Small single bed: about 75cm 190cm.

2. Standard single bed: about 90cm 190cm.

3. Small double bed (3/4 double bed): about 120cm 190cm.

4. Double bed: about 135cm 190cm.

5. King bed: about 150cm200cm.

6. King bed: about 180cm200cm.
