    theres no gaurantee of anything, but if the borrower can afford the payments he should run with it imho.

    I don't think so for 2 reasons. 1/ We are going with a view of seeing how it goes for a year. If we decide to stay after a year we will buy. 2/We have only a rough idea of suberbs in Melbourne. We really need to live there for a year to be sure of schools, suburbs, house prices etc..

    Isn't the Oz market on the turn? In certain areas, Melbourne I think.

    How likley is there to be a crash.

    Is it not predicted that there will be a 8% rise in property prices this year alone.
