36% of Australian’s live outside of the capital cities where there are plenty of opportunities for quality, affordable housing. Opportunities in the largest regional areas of each state.
Almost one third of Australians will buy a property before 2009 is over, despite the current financial conditions causing many people to revisit their financial plans.
Many of those will be investors taking advantage of a buyers' market, according to the annual Consumer Sentiment Survey conducted late last year by Mortgage Choice.
The survey also revealed that job security has overtaken interest rates as the biggest concern.
