International Buyers Take Aim At Popular Australian Regions

Leo Edwards • Jun 12, 2021

Australia's closed borders have not stopped overseas buyers seeking out booming property markets on our shores!

Realestate.com.au have just published data showing that search activity for properties on its portal was up 6.37 per cent - on top of what was already a massive 20 per cent increase in the previous 12 months to 2019!

Demand they claim was driven by expats looking to return after the havoc the Covid Pandemic has caused across the globe and opportunistic investors looking to capitalise on the strong regional markets.

United Kingdom, United States and Hong Kong Buyers topped the search rankings, followed by New Zealand. Searches from China are now in sixth place behind Singapore, searches are also originating from Finland, Dubai and Asia.

James Pratt Auctions Group CEO James Pratt said expats were out pricing local buyers with some paying 10-20 per cent more. "They are bidding very aggressively and many feel they are getting a discount on the property because of the exchange rate," he said.

POWERFUL SOCIAL MEDIA ADVERTISING

Reach potential buyers where they spend most of their time, social media. The largest real estate advertising audience is on social media which has the ability to reach active or passive buyers with an audience of 17 million on Facebook and 5 million on Instagram.

WHY SOCIAL MEDIA ADVERTISING?

  • Advertise your property to thousands of relevant potential buyers, investors and tenants who you’d otherwise miss.
  • Create the best possible conditions for a great price and short sales process.
  • Advanced, smart property targeting shows your ads to people identified as:
ACTIVE BUYERS: Interested in a property like yours, actively looking right now
PASSIVE BUYERS: Interested in a property like yours, not actively looking right now

The Short-term holiday rental market is a booming and lucrative side hustle for many in the stunning coastal towns of Inverloch, Cape Paterson & Venus Bay. Just a short two-hour drive from Melbourne. We meet purchasers every week looking to buy into the Inverloch market and lifestyle without breaking the bank and to offset that purchase with regular short-term rental income while keeping the property free to use on their own preferred dates throughout the year. We recently sat down with Inverloch's premier short-term rental experts "The Beach House People", founded by locals Tor Jacobson & Emma Williams to revolutionise the holiday rental market in Inverloch for a whole new generation of owners to create more memorable guest experiences. They helped us to highlight 4 awesome Inverloch beach houses currently for sale that are just perfect for short-term holiday rentals and Airbnb to generate that extra bit of revenue.
