Featuring two of the highest rating real estate growth cities in the world, Melbourne and Sydney¹, along with many other prime growth areas, Australia offers a stable political and economic environment with high yield investment opportunities.

In 2016, the total value of approved foreign investment in Australia rose to around AU$248 billion, an increase of over AU$55 billion on the previous year. Residential and commercial real estate investment accounts for approximately 49% of total foreign investment.²

Australia is continuously increasing its foreign investment revenue, and offers the ideal conditions for high yield, long-term returns on commercial, industrial and domestic real estate investments.

Offering a higher average return on investment than comparable German opportunities, the Australian real estate market is the ideal opportunity for intelligent European investors to capitalise on the strength of the euro and the consistent growth of a financially and politically stable country.

For example, according to the recent 2016 Russell Investments/ASX Long-term Investing Report (Exhibit 1, page 3), Australian residential investment property averaged an 8% return per annum over ten years to December 2015.

Investors also benefit from Australia’s high quality and transparent legal, planning, and titles systems. This quality infrastructure, which is comparable to German standards, ensures foreign investors are well protected.
