Melbourne: A rare house price oasis in Australia’s overheated property market.
While most capitals are pricing out first home buyers, Melbourne is quietly becoming more accessible — thanks in large part to Victoria’s investor-targeted tax regime.
No praise, of course, is given to the state government for:
• The Vacant Residential Land Tax (discouraging empty homes)
• Higher land tax rates on investment properties
• The windfall gains tax on rezoned landThese measures have cooled investor demand and helped keep prices within reach of everyday buyers. Other states take note.
