I think there is a "First Time Buyers" grant which could be worth investigating when you make the move.

Maybe someone else on here can confirm if it is true or not.

Compared to the UK buying a house in Australia is a doddle!

I am not speaking of costs or any such thing just the process. It is just so complicated in the UK and it can collapse at any time up to contract signing, which can be months.

In Aus (as a rule) you make an offer, accepted, contract signed, or auction contract signed immediately. You know exactly when you get your house.

Good luck for buying, Sydney can be expensive.
