I'm Interested In Buying Property In Australia: What Is Available On An Average Budget?

It really depends on where you would like to buy in Australia. For instance, in Sydney you'll get very little change out of AUD $600,000 for a city center apartment - newly built and minimally appointed of course! On the other hand, $500,000 would buy you a large family home in a small town in NSW. This is a disparate country: The vast majority of the population lives within a (big) stone's throw of the ocean. So Australian house prices are even more affected by location. The closer you are to a center of population, employment and entertainment, the more you'll have to pay for less.
