No, absolutely not. Most landers have same loan servicing requirements as citizen of this country except extra duties and FIRB approval meaning extra deposit to cover this cost.

Being temporary resident, you would be paying extra charge on stamp duty on value of property so its better to buy land and pay lower extra charge compare to paying 7% on total value of already built dwelling.

Generally Residential properties are categorized as “new dwellings” or “established dwellings”

New dwellings are homes built on residential land which has not been previously sold as adwelling and has:
•not been previously occupied; or if the dwelling is part of a development and sold by the developer, it has not been previously occupied for more than 12 months in total. A refurbished or renovated residence which was previously occupied is not considered to be a new dwelling. Vacant land bought for residential construction is deemed to be a new dwelling instead. As such, “Home and Land” packages are considered to be new dwellings too, as long as:
•• the development is completed within four years from the date of approval
•• evidence of completion is submitted to the FIRB within 30 days of being received There are no conditions or limitations on the number of new dwellings that can be purchased by a temporary resident. Approval is generally required before the purchase is made. We can assist you with process of securing the FIRB approval.


Established dwellings typically refer to residential properties that are on the secondary market. If a residential property is constructed and occupied, it is usually considered to be an established dwelling.
Temporary residents can purchase ONE established dwelling to live in as their primary residence in Australia. The property should not be used for leasing. The property also should be sold within 3 months if the temporary resident moves out of the established dwelling. In simpler words, an established dwelling cannot be purchased by a temporary resident to be held as an investment property. You are required to get FIRB approval for established dwelling purchase as well.

The FIRB guidelines state the you must have approval before a property can be purchased in Australia.
An offer to purchase a property may need to be conditional on FIRB approval, which may lead to delays and the offer not being accepted or as attractive as others without such conditions. The regulations state that you must complete a separate application for each property you intend to purchase. This issue can be mitigated by applying for what is called an ‘Exemption Certificate‘.
An Exemption Certificate allows a foreign person to purchase one unspecified property within a six-month period. The exemption certificate means that you do not have to seek individual approval for each property you are interested in. More information is available from the Australian Tax Office.
We can assist you to secure house and land package with prior FIRB approval or apply for Exemption Certificate to be used multiple times.

A criterion for the subclass 888 Business Investment Stream permanent business visa is that the you must meet two of the following three requirements:
• assets of AUD200,000 net value in your main business (or 2 main businesses) in Australia
• personal and business assets in Australia of AUD600,000 net value
• equivalent of at least 2 full-time eligible employees in your main business
By meeting the first requirement for business assets and also buying property, meeting the second requirement should be straight forward considering the median price of a house in Australia is over AUD500,000. This would achieve the two out three criteria meaning that the business would not need to employ two full-time eligible employees.

Owning a property is not an essential criterion to be met when applying for permanent residency or citizenship. In the case of applying for citizenship, owning a property is considered by the Department of Home Affairs in assessing the ‘close and continuing link to Australia’ criteria. However, it is not a compulsory requirement, so other factors such as family connections, work history, and time in Australia are also considered.

Temporary residents may have the intentions to build up a portfolio of residential properties as a form of investment. Upon purchase, many of these properties are rented out to generate passive rental income. As a temporary resident, you can do so as long as the properties being rented out are all new dwellings. By regulation, you can only purchase one established dwelling for your own residence, and not rent it out
