This thought just occured to me...do you pay a bond in a DHA house??? no-one has said anything to me about it so i was just curious.

TIA

No they don't pay the bond. You can get a loan of them to pay the bond. Then you pay it back. We had a 6 month lease so we had to pay it back by the end of our 6 month lease.

I think we all so got a loan of 2 weeks rent. Had to pay our share of that back.

ok cool thanks I just wasnt sure if they were just like normal rentals regarding bond etc.

I didnt know you could get a 6 month lease in a defence house?!? I thought it was for the length of your posting?

learn something new everyday

U don't pay bond for a DHA house, however I am assuming CJ was talking about RA properties, as I know in your DHA choices u don't.

Also, in your normal DHA houses, it is for the length of your posting.

No worries Pennylane, good luck with everything, I hope you find a house and everything runs smoothly. I find it very exciting, the whole moving process, moving to a new house and everything.

Sorry I was in a hurry and was thinking you were still asking about RA. Next time I should wait, not read and reply when I should be walking out the door lol.
