Abstract
The pro-foreign investment stance must be accompanied by education about its risks and benefits, policies to improve housing affordability and strategies to protect intercultural community relations in Australia. There is bipartisan support for foreign investment in residential real estate. But the politics of non-white citizens purchasing real estate is a highly charged cultural issue in Australia that is linked to national housing identities such as the great Australian dream of homeownership.
