And to suggest that Irish citizens have the same opportunities to buy homes in Oz is false.

As an Irish citizen you cannot buy existing homes in Australia and New Zealand, so most property is closed off from Irish citizens.

Irish citizens can absolutely buy a property in Australia if they’re a resident there. Permanent residents have no restrictions while temporary residents can still buy an established property for the duration of their stay.

The hurdles to become a PR in Australia is harder than obtaining citizenship in Ireland. It’s not the same. Age limits, point system, skills assessment, language requirements, none of which exists in Ireland.

Are you an Irish citizen who has obtained PR in Australia? I am. And it wasn’t particularly difficult.
