中國留學生返澳直呼“租房難”！有人高價“搶房”，有人考慮露宿街頭！？
美國之音報道稱，對於即將前往澳洲一所頂尖大學學習的中國留學生張同學（Zoey Zhang，音譯）來説，租房難成為了急需解決的問題，她甚至考慮過“露宿街頭”。今年1月，中國政府出人意料地頒佈了一項法令，要求留學生必須回到校園學習，否則學歷難以得到認證。這一突然宣佈的網課新規，使得大約70萬像張同學這樣的中國留學生措手不及。儘管全球住房市場都在努力應對飆升的租金。但澳洲的租房危機更為嚴重，因為澳洲的學年是在2月份開始，而不是像北美和歐洲那樣在9月份。 張同學表示，她和其他大約4萬名前往澳洲的中國留學生，都在急着尋找可以住宿的地方，這讓她“進入了恐慌模式”。25歲的張同學在中國山東的家中通過電話接受採訪時説到：“我知道在澳租房並不容易，但我沒想到會這麼難。有些人甚至在轉租他們的客廳或陽台，我覺得我做不到。”&ldqu...

中國政府不再承認網課海外文憑，澳中國留學生慌神：簽證還沒下來!
在中國政府宣佈拒絕承認外國院校的在線學位後，4萬多名大學生爭先恐後地趕在新學期之前抵達澳洲。 據TheGuardian網站報道，根據新規定，所有在海外在線學習機構註冊的中國學生第一學期必須在校學習，澳洲的第一學期將在幾周後開始。澳洲國際教育協會（IEAA）首席執行官Phil Honeywood表示，雖然他歡迎學生迴歸校園學習，但突然的時間安排將給航班、住宿和簽證審批帶來重大挑戰。 據悉，約有4.2萬名持有學生簽證的中國公民仍在海外，其中5500人是在過去一個月申請的，2400人是在過去兩週申請的。目前還不知道有多少學生還沒有申請到學生簽證來旅行。Universities Australia首席執行官Catriona Jackson直言，“現在離新學年這麼近，很明顯會有後勤問題。我們將與政府和行業密切合作，確保大學能夠迅速應對這種湧入，並促進學生安全返回。”...

In the first wave of the pandemic house values took a hit. In the current lockdowns, values are actually still rising, although losing some momentum.CoreLogicsTim Lawless says that loss of momentum has less to d...
Can COVID-19 defeat the Australian property market?
The reintroduction of snap lockdowns across Australia in response to a resurgence of COVID-19 is unlikely to put a significant dent in the property market, given its prior record in dealing with worse circumstances at the peak of the pandemic in 2020. Strict lockdowns do impact the number of houses coming onto the market, in turn creating some short term impacts on prices as buyers stay ...
疫情期間，國際買家仍然傾向在澳洲購買房屋！？
近日，墨爾本Brighton East的一間獨立屋以436.2萬澳元的價格賣出，它在墨爾本第六次“封城”生效前10天掛牌上市的。買家是一對來自美國的夫婦，房產經紀Nick Johnstone表示，他們甚至沒有親身去過看房。 雖然澳洲的國際邊境仍然關閉，國際居民可能需要一年多的時間才能入境澳洲。墨爾本和悉尼等城市仍然在封城的狀態，然而國際買家對澳洲的房地產有着非常濃厚的興趣。Domain高級研究分析師Nicola Powell表示，國際投資的最新增長是由於澳洲獨立屋價格的上漲，以及買家們認為澳洲的疫情環境相對安全。澳洲上一季度獨立屋價格上漲5.7%，在疫情爆發後出現了一些意外的上漲，所有首府獨立屋價格中位數達到創紀錄的89.9509萬澳元。而海外買家購買的獨立屋類型更高端、面積也更大。可能由於封鎖令促使新買家尋找更寬敞的房屋，或更方便前往海灘或...
