Buying a Home in Australia and New Zealand

Fri, August 03, 2007 - 3:37 pm GMT

Buying a Home in Australia and New ZealandBoth Australia and New Zealand regularly top the list of locations that British, European and Northern American citizens would like to relocate to because both nations offer such an exceptionally high standard yet relatively low cost of living, and because both nations offer a great deal in terms of employment and lifestyle opportunities.

When researching your emigration options however, both countries are seldom compared together in print form and when researching property ownership options Graeme Chesters’ book ‘Buying a Home in Australia and New Zealand’ is the first decent resource that we have come across that actually gives you all the facts and information you could possibly need to make a personal decision about which country is best for you.

The book begins by discussing all the major considerations that anyone contemplating a move – or at least a move into property – in Australia and New Zealand needs to take into account.  The author examines reasons for choosing each nation in turn so that a reader can make their personal decision based on clear facts and how they relate to their own personal circumstances and preferences.

In the initial chapters of his book ‘Buying a Home in Australia and New Zealand,’ author Graeme Chesters also discusses with his readership reasons to buy or invest in property in both nations in turn.  Property prices, ownership rules, taxes and ongoing fees are discussed, detailed, compared and explained and further on in the book the author of course goes in depth into the buying processes in each nation so that a potential buyer is fully appraised of every single aspect of the process that they will encounter.

All types of property and each type of property buying process is covered by Graeme Chesters – for example, he looks at buying at auction, dealing with estate agents, buying direct from the vendor or developer, self-building, how to negotiate, haggling, bidding and making offers. 
The author really guides his readership through the intricacies and ins and outs of selecting, buying, owning and even profiting from property in Australia and New Zealand and whether you’re considering relocating to live down under, you’re thinking about buying an investment home in New Zealand or you’re just curious about the fundamental real estate differences between the two nations you will find no greater wealth of information than in Graeme Chesters’ book ‘Buying a Home in Australia and New Zealand.’
