Bills and expenses

Fisher House offers so much more than a regular boarding house, student accommodation, or furnished flat because when you arrive, everything you need is here and included in your rate. The only add-ons are your wifi ( due to a NBN line fault currently -see note below). Fisher House rates include water, electricity, use of washing machines (& washing liquid) & clothes dryers. Extra homely touches include coffee machine, tea, instant coffee, filtered water & fully equipped kitchens.

What do your rates include?
1. Electricity & water are included as is use of the laundry (incl washing liquid).
2. All communal areas are professionally cleaned three times per week & individual rooms are professionally cleaned fortnightly, & all communal areas are professionally cleaned three times a week. Just as in a normal home, everyone living in Fisher House is responsible for the general cleanliness & day to day chores around the house.
3. Our coffee station is fully stocked with assorted teas & instant coffee but, we also have a coffee machine which is fully stocked with fresh roasted beans.
4. Access to Wifi in the central hub areas is currently offered as a bonus inclusion if / when available, but the Wi-Fi is not guaranteed. This is an ongoing NBN issue, and a solution is being sought. Once the telecom company can find a solution, Wi-Fi will be inclusive.

What is not included?
Bed linen, pillows, duvets and towels - We offer quality "recycled" Linen Packs for rent during your stay, or you can choose to bring all your own linen.

We really are just like a home away from home so once you have paid for your rent & selected your linen option you really only have your wifi and food to arrange.

Compatible people
Fisher House is more than simply a share house. Our tenants feel that they are a community and this seems to stem from our approach of operating under the umbrella of 7 core values - respect, trust, compassion, integrity, tolerance, understanding, & grace. When our tenants, visitors, managers, and staff embrace these values as the core of our approach to living and working in a Shared Housing environment, actively embracing the House Rules and Etiquettes as guidelines, daily life at Fisher House is calm, harmonious, and enjoyable for all.
