FREE eBook "20 top tips for Australian expats thinking of buying back home this summer"
Australian expatriates regularly buy properties back in Australia. Perhaps not necessarily when the Australia dollar is as high as present.
But they do always have in their mind their eventual return to what will be their family home when their overseas assignments end.
This raises many personal and financial issues regarding the selection of the property, the potential capital gains tax (CGT) treatment, negative-gearing tax breaks, and the possible tax consequences if rental income exceeds deductible costs.
This eBook is written specifically for Australian citizens who are residents of another country, including for tax purposes, during extended overseas assignments.
Veteran personal finance and property journalist Michael Laurence is the author.
In this eBook, you’ll read:
- Buying tips and warnings from real estate agent Ross Savas of Kay & Burton Real Estate
- Valuable insider strategies from buyers’agent David Morrell of Morrell and Koren
- Smart tax tips from accountant Joe Galea from Deloitte

"I have been writing about property for more than 25 years, and I've learnt that getting passionate about property is easy. Getting it right is trickier. I intend for Property Observer to be property central, providing the essential news and analysis on the ins and outs of property. We will cover the capital cities, up and down the coast, and inland to the regional towns and the bush.
We will offer plenty of authoritative coverage about the homes we live in and the investments that top up our incomes.
Property Observer will showcase the best houses and apartments and all the big-name buyers and sellers. We will also keep a watchful eye on new developments, and the plush over-55 developments that seek out the growing band of empty nesters."
