Hello, I will be moving to south Australia and would like invest in realestate there.

One guy said he had someone in australia even doing it.

My name is Steve and I am from Melbourne, Australia .

I was in the exhibit hall as a sponsor the entire time, so I was unable attend any breakouts. 

All of the Big 4 exhibit solid price performance that outpaces inflation. $100 in 1995 is worth $166 now using a cost of living calculator.

It all starts with the type of tenant demographic that your property attracts.Now, the only reasonable thing to do is to set aside some capital for turnover when you find that a tenant is exhibiting that kind of behaviour during your inspections. 

But feel it is going to negatively impact landlords by further scrutiny(and new regulations) from the government which will harm tenants on down the road.I'm not sure how it "harms tenants" any more than any other business harms customers by raising prices.Around 70% of rental property is managed by a professional property manager in Australia whereas it's more like 20% in America.

@Leanne WebbyHi LeanneI’m in Australia - we are neighbours .Australia is not great for investing now , too expensive.Let us know your progress 😃

The zero down payment makes it hard because the monthly payments are quite high, but hey free equity.My one true love is traveling and a couple of years ago, after working for a while and saving a decent amount of cash, I quit my job and was living the nomad lifestyle just wandering around the world - spent a lot of time in eastern Europe, India, and Australia.

As a former electrician in Australia, when I bid a job I really didn't want to do, there was always a price that I would do the job for...as in a lot higher than it should have been.
