I am happy to be a contributor to Stuff’s latest news article about moving to Australia. It’s a good read and backs up my standpoint of how important it is to research before you move.

Get to know your employment industry in Australia, the demand for your skills, how quickly job listings turn around, your approximate salary, what paperwork you are going to need, etc. The same goes for the rental market: where do you want to live, what are the current rents, and once again, what paperwork you are going to need. Information is king.

The article talks to a number of New Zealanders living in Australia and compares the cost of food, healthcare, student loans, rentals, buying and selling a house, retirement, and dining out.

Definitely have a read of the comments. There are some insightful comments and I had a few chuckles.
