temporary resident可以买二手房么？

今天看了澳洲外国投资者网站发现了有关外国人买二手房的规定
Second–Hand (Established) Dwellings

This category includes all residential dwellings which are not new dwellings (that is, they have been previously owned and/or they have been occupied for more than 12 months).
Acquisitions by individual(s)

Foreign persons are prohibited from acquiring established dwellings for investment purposes (that is, they cannot be purchased to be used as a rental or holiday property), irrespective of whether they are temporary residents in Australia or not.

Foreign persons who are temporary residents in Australia do not require approval to acquire a second-hand dwelling as their principal place of residence.

就是说如果我在这边是temporary resident，我就可以买一套二手房自住用，不出租或者作为投资就行，是这样理解么？而且我买房不需要报批···只要是自己住就行？

Dear Sir/Madam



As of 31 March 2009, temporary residents are no longer required to notify or seek approval to purchase any of the following:



•              a second-hand dwelling as their principal place of residence;

•              any new dwellings; or

•              single blocks of vacant land.

A person is a temporary resident if they are living in Australia and:



•              they hold a temporary (that is, non-permanent) visa which permits them to stay in Australia for a continuous period of more than 12 months (this includes students); or

•              they have submitted an application for permanent residency, and they hold a bridging visa which permits them to stay in Australia until that application has been finalised.



This exemption applies to real estate contracts entered into on or after 18 December 2008.

   

This office does not provide individual signed letters for real estate acquisitions that are exempt from the Act.  This email constitutes a formal notification that no approval is required for this real estate acquisition.  No further correspondence is required.



Please refer to the FIRB website www.firb.gov.au for further details.



Please note that you have to live in Australia at the time of the purchase to be exempt.
