Leaving home for the first time is a complicated and expensive matter. There is surprisingly little detailed information on the subject. This Wiki guide is an extensive amalgamation of knowledge to help you consider everything you may face when moving out. All figures are based on city living within Australia, so you may have to make adjustments if you live elsewhere. It is split into 3 main sections.

Finding a Property
Many people are now finding property to rent or buy on the Internet. There are many RealEstate websites, which allow you to cull properties based on your needs. You may find the popular properties go very quickly, sometimes even a day or so after they are listed. If you see a place you really like, make sure you call the agent straight away, and organise a time to inspect the property. Agents should generally not be trusted, and obviously do not have your interests in mind. They are trying to get the best tenants, to pay the highest price, in the shortest amount of time.
