Can Nonresidents Invest in Australian Property?

Foreign and nonresident investors are generally welcome to invest in Australian property provided they comply with Australian Government requirements.

The Australian Government monitors and controls the investment by foreign interests in Australian businesses and real estate through its Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB).

Government Requirements

The FIRB has set down some strict guidelines for foreign investors wishing to purchase residential real estate in Australia.

Generally new dwellings bought “off-the-plan” before construction commences or after construction is completed are easy to get government approval.

There is generally no limit on the number of such dwellings sold to foreign persons, provided that the developer markets the dwellings locally as well as overseas.

For more detailed information, we would suggest that you the FIRB website www.firb.gov.au
