First time posting on this site. My wife and I are looking to move from Melbourne to SE Queensland. We have been searching on the internet for prospective areas, properties and land for sale as well as designs from various Queensland home builders. I happened across this site by chance and have found useful articles under this category to assist with moving but moving as a single is very different to moving a young family with pets and I'm more interested to learn from others experiences who have been in a similar situation as to the logistics of looking for properties and moving interstate.
Did you enlist the services of a real estate broker or do it yourself?
Did you travel to inspect firsthand areas/properties before selling or did you sell and move to a rental property before looking?
If building a new home, did you move after the new home was built or beforehand?
If moving to established property, did you all move together? Or did one of you move first and the rest followed later?
What woud you have done differently if you had to do it again?
Appreciate any and all comments.
Thanks
