I'm looking at around $300pw, but will stretch a bit further for the right property - I'm looking at mid-longer term 2-3 years but will consider anything above 6-12 months. I'm professional, reliable, tidy, relatively quiet, don't do parties, and can provide excellent references from 2 rental agencies on request. I need to be out of my current rental by November 25, so if you or someone you know has a rental fitting the description I'm keen to hear from you. Regards, Chris.
