Moving from NYC to Canberra, where to buy?

[S1mon]

Sydney did not go up while Canberra did in early 2000.

All property investors in Canberra should check their rates and land tax notice to realise the big increase since early 2000. And escalated in recent years. Apartments investors are paying more land tax since 2014. Talked to a few agents and not many investors in the market.

i agree...land tax here is an absolute killer (relative to other states, and as a % of rent)...no way i would recommend anyone investing here. and as i have posted before, more land than you can poke a stick at
