可以买, 但是作为海外投资者, 需要报请联邦政府批准 --- 以前买房的时候, 听中介说的
如果你的配偶是澳洲公民,就不需要批准; 其余情况,包括配偶是PR,你也需要批准
Foreign purchasers intending to acquire real estate in Australia must seek prior approval from the Government through the Foreign Investment Review Board unless specifically exempted by the Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Regulations.
Under the Act, a foreign person is:
* a natural person not ordinarily resident in Australia;
* a corporation in which a natural person not ordinarily resident in Australia or a foreign corporation holds a controlling interest (that is, a holding of 15 percent or more);
* a corporation in which 2 or more persons, each of whom is either a natural person not ordinarily resident in Australia or a foreign corporation, hold an aggregate controlling interest (that is, a total holding of 40 percent or more);
* the trustee of a trust estate in which a natural person not ordinarily resident in Australia or a foreign corporation holds a substantial interest; or
* the trustee of a trust estate in which 2 or more persons, each of whom is either a natural person not ordinarily resident in Australia or a foreign corporation, hold an aggregate substantial interest.

Second–Hand Real Estate
Acquisitions of residential real estate that has been previously owned or occupied, that is second-hand houses, flats or units, are not normally approved except for the following two categories:
1. Foreign nationals temporarily resident in Australia, holding a current temporary resident visa which permits continuous residence in Australia for a further period of more than 12 months from the time of application. The dwelling must be used as their principal place of residence1 and not for rental purposes, and must be sold immediately when their visa expires, they no longer reside in the property or when they cease to reside in Australia.
* Persons who hold visitor or bridging visas are not eligible for approval under this category.
* This category includes students 18 years of age and over studying courses of more than twelve months duration at recognised tertiary institutions.
o A general limit of $300,000 applies to the value of properties acquired by these students.
2. Foreign companies with a substantial Australian business, buying for named senior executives continuously resident in Australia for periods longer than 12 months, provided the dwelling is sold when no longer required for this purpose. Whether a company is eligible, and the number of properties it may acquire under this category, will depend upon the scope of the foreign company's operations and assets in Australia.
* Unless there are special circumstances, foreign companies normally will not be permitted to buy more than two dwellings under this category.
Foreign companies would not be eligible under this category where the property would represent a significant proportion of its Australian assets.

买空地规定:
Vacant Land
Acquisitions of vacant land for development (including house and land packages where construction has not commenced) by foreign interests are normally approved subject to:
* continuous substantial construction commencing within 12 months;
* a minimum amount equivalent to 50 per cent of the acquisition cost or current market value of the land (whichever is higher) must be spent on development; and
* once construction is completed, parties notify the completion date and actual development expenditure.
Once these conditions have been fulfilled, properties acquired under this category may be rented out, sold to Australian interests or other eligible purchasers, or retained for the foreign investor's own use. |
