[SHAHID ALI]

Could you please share options for single person accomodations in reasonable amount in Sydney?

Unfortunately I am not from Sydney, so can't comment about that. I think @Marcos Albuquerque is looking for some accommodation in Sydney, may be he can help.

Shahid,

I've been looking at www.realestate.com.au

Shahid,

That's a good website. You can also check www.domain.com.au/

However, arguably the best and most popular one is www.allhomes.com.au

Only issue is, most of the agents (from any website) won't give you a contract without any physical inspection.

Thank you MysticRiver. Could you please share your thoughts on travel insurance? Is it mandatory ?

Nope.

You are parmanently moving, so I don't think a travel insurance should be on the card. Also in Aus, general medicare is free. If you want to be protected for major health issues as well, you can take some health insurance once you reach here.

I'll be using airbnb accomodation for the first month until I lease a regular rent.

To have a better chance to be approved- I was advised to pay a couple months in advance when you have no secured job nor rental/work local experience during the first months.
