If you're investing such a large amount of money in an asset like property, you typically don't want to be in a volatile market. Everything about Australia – society, economy, government, currency – has offered stability over the long term.

If you're looking to buy property as a rental investment, Australia has a proven track record in providing consistent long term growth – ideal for the savvy investor.

Alongside the economic considerations, there is arts & culture, top level education facilities and a world class medical system, all of which help to create future growth potential.
With half a million people arriving in the country each year on average, Australia has a well-established system to handle property transactions for overseas buyers or those recently arrived in the country.
You might even be able to receive tax exemptions, depending on your citizenship and where you are buying, as well as whether the property will be your primary residence or a rental property. It's important to note that tax implications for owning property overseas can be complicated, so you should do plenty of research and speak to a tax consultant.
