Day 2 was the day. This is the 6th house we looked at.In Australia, the house hunting process is a lot different. Each house has it's own agent (same as us), however, they don't work together as a real estate unit. The hunter (us) must call each agent and set up an appointment to see a home. That isn't as easy as it sounds. Most homes are only open for inspection once a week for a 10 minute time frame. You and everybody else looking at that home walk through at one time.
We were lucky and found a great agent at our first home we inspected who will meet you at the home's she manages for a private looky-lew. She showed us our 1st and 6th house.
This home will be 100% furnished. We actually will have to ask them to put some of their stuff away; wine glasses, cooking pans, utensils, etc. We also have beds coming over from the States, so we will decide then if we will keep using their beds and sell ours, or have them store theirs.
There is not pool, but the kids say that is okay. Apparently, the neighbor kids are the same age as them and they have one. :) The owners of the home also had the great insight to buy two building lots so they have a wonderful yard for the kids to play in. This is VERY VERY rare in Oz. There is also a huge park right across the street.
