"Expat homes and apartments in Australia tend to be spacious and modern, offering plenty of natural light and fantastic features such as stunning views of the harbour and beaches if located in coastal towns. Expats often have access to a range of amenities such as private pools and tennis courts, along with modern interiors and luxury appliances. Many of the homes and apartments available may come unfurnished, allowing expats to make their new homes reflect their own style and personalities," remarked another expat who made the move to Australia.
