Vic321 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 I do love it but it does get you mad with all the card turning. I got a little giddy this morning hopefully just a couple more months and we will be there and I would love that swimming pool what was on this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not meant to be a real estate programme; it's meant to be about migration...you'd never guess when they mainly show what house they could live in and not a lot about the area...lol! They should have had a trial at surf life saving on Sunday morning, lunch and a round of golf at Secrets, a cycle around Warnbro Sound and a beer/ dinner at the Whistling Kite! Not many 6 bed houses...I wonder where it was in Secret Harbour?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou8670 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Found it! They advertised the house for sale last year "AS FEATURED ON WANTED DOWN UNDER"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonM Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Just watching the episode with the swimming pool, sorry Wayne you made yourself look a door handle head. As a few of you have said I used to like watching this program but becoming annoying, maybe it's the people that they are getting on are more annoying I'm not sure. You are all right it does give an unrealistic view of things as well, I just like watching the Perth ones now to see the places we looked at when over on our reccie, just makes me miss it more....... Come on case worker...... Work on my case....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on case worker...... Work on my case....... Was that the episode where the guy said the pool was too small and yet it looked a lovely family home??? I think the families have actually been much more likeable on this series but the family in Perth with the larger budget appeared quite greedy really when you consider their income. Maybe this was the way the producers edited the show. For example when he was told by the employer a salary figure, he told his wife a higher figure so it looked like he was lying... I just wonder why they were considering houses at a much larger budget than other families? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Jac2011 that was the one, I am sure there are quiet a few people on here that would be over the moon with a 450k budget, I just think he was being unrealistic and kept badgering on about Cornwall, I would like to see you get the same house in Cornwall for that budget. As you say maybe down to the editing, I would never go on the show. Maybe they have to put in a few that are like this to show a bit of balance. I have just looked on real estateau and I have found nicer pads for the money, maybe the exchange rate was not as good when this was filmed.

jac2011 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 I just saw an amazing house for $480k. I would feel privilaged to live in it and that kind of property would certainly not be achievable in the UK. If they were earning a $150k salary or something I would understand but their earnings were far lower than my husbands and I. Maybe even 50% lower. It really made out that Perth is not affordable but to me wanting a 6 bedroom house on that budget is pure greed. Cornwall is very nice, but the weather and outdoor lifestyle is completely different to Australia, so why compare the two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jac2011 Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I read that they will look into it later on as she found out she fell pregnant during her trip. I understand the pull of letting family get to know the youngest before they move out but I also think it can make it harder. It would seem silly not to move.

JasonM Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Now you all know why medical is so expensive with a salary like that, ok I am re training as a G.P dish out some antibiotics and jobs a gooden 350k a year......

Loved the 3rd house and the views around Kings Park, nice for Aussi day Anyone know if the Dr uses this forum? I found it quite heart warming with his feeling towards his family and history and the medals, he made the trip out of respect I would LOVE to see the medals for real then visit the statue too (I sound like a stalker!)
