Yes there are rates to pay (sorry I missed that one).
I have no idea how much these will vary but for our house in Mount Gambier, South Australia they assessed the capital value at A$245,000 and our rates are A$892.81 per year (A$245,000 x 0.001869 plus a state charge of $400 and a state gov levy of $34.90). We pay our rates quarterly here but I think that can differ too.
If you have a search on google.com.au for council rates and the state you are going to you may be able to find info for the area you are moving to.
