Australian Real Estate - Buying, Selling and Information

Advice and Services for the Expat Buyer of Australian Real Estate

Exfin provides access to a number of services associated with the purchase of real property in Australia, including general information about the buying, selling and renting of property. Information and resources include the following.

Residential Property Market

Access to regularly updated residential property market information data and charts from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) and other sources regarding Australian house prices in relation to all major capital cities, and to other market commentary.

Australian Expat Mortgages

Access to almost all Australian mortgage products for the purchase of Australian real estate purchases, provided by mortgage brokers who are experienced in dealing with Australian expat buyers.

Tax and Financial Planning

If you are concerned about the potential tax implications of the purchase, rent or sale of Australian property, or want to ensure that your purchase is tax effective, we provide direct access to experienced tax and financial planning advice.

Legal Advice and Assistance

Whether your concerns are purely about arranging the legal transfer of property (conveyancing), arranging FIRB approval or have questions about the best (and most tax effective) ownership structure, we provide online access to professional legal services across Australia.

Any Australian expat with a partner who is neither an Australian citizen or permanent resident needs to consider how they buy Australian property - there may be unexpected constraints or significant additional costs attaching to purchasing on a joint or common basis with their partner. Additionally, given restrictions on foreign non-residents holding interests in Australian real estate property cannot simply be passed to foreign beneficiaries in a will without potentially requiring FIRB approval.

Buying, Selling and Renting Property

We provide a wide range of information focused on providing expat Australians, and other interested parties, with detailed background information on the cost of buying, selling and renting out residential real estate in Australia. A partner firm is also able to provide a property management service in almost all Australian capital cities at very competitive rates.
