Real Estate Sydney
(PRWeb) December 30, 2006 -- A new record was reached in Sydney real estate as a waterfront home has become Sydney's most expensive real estate, selling for just over $18 million.
Real estate in Australia has been in a bit of a slump over the past few months, with South Australian Housing Minister Jay Weatherill saying that he had warned the Howard Government for the past five years about an affordability crisis.
The latest luxury home sales are ignoring this crisis and especially so for this four-bedroom home. It sits on 860sqm in Sydney's exclusive Rose Bay, on a magnificent waterfront aspect, as the prestige property market in Australia continues to boom.
Compare this sale to the top 5 Australian homes and the rest of the world:
