Recently, the Domain announced two global reports: They respectively pointed out that Australian real estate has performed outstandingly in terms of capital security and market transparency.

A stable political and economic environment establishes capital security

The 26th survey of global real estate investment by the AFIRE (Association of Foreign in Real Estate), the US real estate investment authority, is listed as one of the 2018 countries with the most stable and safe global real estate investment environment.

The report shows that although Australia is not yet the best performing country in terms of capital appreciation, it has secured a stable destination for the fifth real estate investment in the world with a stable political and economic macro environment.

Angie Zigomanis, head of research at the BIS Institute of Economic Research at Oxford University, said: “The Australian real estate market is working well. The data shows that Australia has not experienced a recession for 25 years, and real estate prices have grown very strongly in most regions.

In addition, Australia’s overall political stability is also an important factor in attracting overseas investment. Investors see investment potential and capital security here.

Market “transparency” lays the foundation for sustainable development of real estate

In addition, according to the JLL report, the transparency of real estate in Australia ranks second in the world.

The survey involves an overall assessment of land availability, regulation, transaction procedures, housing property rights, and the legal environment.

The stability of Australia’s economic environment, the transparency of its regulatory and legal systems, coupled with high standards of ethical governance and industry practices, have contributed to the influx of investment capital in commercial real estate and residential properties.

The main reason for the high transparency of the Australian housing market is that compared to other countries, Australia has a very rigorous and comprehensive legal system to define and protect property rights and provide an open, fair and orderly bidding process.
