Tasmanian housing prices, whether you are renting or buying, are amongst the lowest in Australia. Houses in Tasmania’s capital, Hobart are, on average half the price of a home in Sydney.
You can affordably live in the inner city area, suburbs, beachside or in rural locations. The State’s housing styles range from classic colonial Georgian to award-winning contemporary architecture.
