Forums / Property Investing / Help Needed! / Foreigner Buyer Restrictions in Australia
-
Hello all,
I am a property investor from Europe, and looking to invest into Australian property, and I already own 2 rental units in new developments.
The problem:
Foreign investors are ONLY allowed to purchase NEW properties (completed within max 1 year). These types of properties are more expensive (easily 25% more) than existing older units and probably get a lower % ROI as well.I am looking for (legal) ways to purchase older units, or buy land to develop into rental units.
Is anyone here familiar with the laws that apply to non-Australian property investors in Australia?
Is there anything I can do?
What if a property is jointly owned by a local and myself?Thank you in advance!

Hi there
I have sent you a PM in regards to such a way.
We do this with a couple of large Chinese groups and it works well for all concerned.
Cheers
Yours in Finance

Yes, there are a number of ways it can be structured. You will need legal advice on the foreign acquisitions and takeovers act and regs
