Most Australian investors and home buyers were largely undeterred by the events of 2020, remaining eager to push through with their investment plans, a new survey has found.
Despite having to face the impacts of COVID-19, a majority of Australians remain in pursuit of their dream to own a home, according to the 2021 Buyer Barometer Survey by the Real Estate Buyers Agents Association of Australia (REBAA) and Property Talk Australia (PTA).
Of the 745 home buyers and investors from across the country who participated in the survey, only 15 per cent said that they put their search on hold in response to COVID-19, while 9 per cent changed their buying criteria.
