Even if you take different suburbs of Sydney or Brisbane into account, you will see major price differences. I live in Sydney and can say the following
- an average 2 br unit in Sutherland costs $360,000
- an average 2 br unit in Rockdale/Kogarah/Hurstville costs $420,000
- an average 2 br unit in Rhodes/Strathfield costs around $500,000
- an average 2 br unit in Marrickville costs around $450,000
- an average 2 br unit in Blacktown/Liverpool can be bought around $300,000 - $310,000
Same about Brisbane
- an average 3 br townhouse in Richlands costs $340,000
- an average 3 br townhouse in Redbank Plains costs $310,000
- an average 3 br townhouse in Redcliffe costs around $340,000
- an average 3 br townhouse in Annerley costs around $450,000
Many units in Milton, Southbank, Kangaroo Point will be more expensive than townhouses in mentioned areas.
That is a fairly large swing in the cost of property in the different suburbs of Sydney and Brisbane - a lot of people will be surprised by this. It looks as though those looking to move to Australia will certainly need to have done their homework before they land - otherwise they could be in for a big shock!
I think living costs in Australia relies upon where you're. And in common it's more costly when you're in like Brisbane, sydney. As health services are very costly. As i have spend a lot of money on health related issues an dtreatments.
