Have a non car related enquiry... Can anyone give me the names of some half descent suburbs close to Brissy where I could rent a house?? I've been looking on Realestate.com.au but I dont know which suburbs to look under..

Cheers and thanks

Kaz

price range? and do you want to live with other people? how many other people?

you can get a very nice place in the CBD for a fair price if you want to share with 1 or 2 other people.

pretty slim pickings though if you want a 1 bedroom apartment, and you'll pay big dollars ... unless its a really crappy place..

woot!! another member for QLD!!!

I live at milton/Auchenflower and its an awesome suburb... right next to the city but still pretty quiet.

Be very $$ to live by urself but I live with a mate and its pretty good...

Being reasonably new to brisbane, im not sure where...

but have a chat to chelly to find out more (think she's been here forever)...

also if you want a little bit more coastal, capalaba and surrounding suburbs are good.

Would be by myself.. am currently paying $265 per week on a three bedroom small house.. but a fcuken million miles from the CBD (think 70km's) So under 70km would be a bonus

You could get a fully furnished share apartment in / around the CBD for those kind of dollars...

Milton/Auchenflower/Paddington/New Farm/South Brisbane/Spring Hill

are all decent areas in/around the CBD with fairly nice apartments/houses

You can get a bigger house for the same price if you move further out & theres heaps of renovated qld'ers around that might be worth looking at...

yeh i got a discount on my place because my mates dad owns it...

The price is because its a 2-3 min scooter drive to the city central.

Paddington is also good area as michael said...

i think if u find somewhere u like, post up the suburb and we'll let u know.
