We rent in Glen Waverley! It's a really lovely area. Hamish goes to Mount View, which is just down the road, and it's an amazing school. Once you're in you're in, but it's pretty high demand, so I don't know that sibling preference would be enough to get Toby in too if you moved away? You'd have to call and ask I guess.
We pay.. $2325 per calendar month for a house big enough to fit four adults and three children. It's older, but huge and quite lovely, plus it doesn't matter if things break cos the joy of renting is someone else pays to fix it!
I hope Adam is right and the housing bubble does burst so we can afford to buy here, but I think our plan might be to buy something further out once the kids are older.
