Frequently asked questions
How strong is Taiwanese demand for Sydney property?
Taiwan ranks #3 among published foreign-buyer nationalities for Sydney (FIRB / Treasury, FY2023-24), and our own demand signals read prospect demand as strong. The ranking is a published record; the demand reading is a modelled estimate, not a record of actual purchases.
Why does Taiwanese show demand for Sydney despite the distance?
For long-haul corridors the destination itself is the draw: safety, yield, residency or lifestyle outweigh distance. PropScient weights these market pull factors accordingly.
Which languages should campaigns targeting Taiwanese buyers use?
Campaigns reaching Taiwanese buyers typically run in Traditional Chinese. Measuring demand in the buyer's own language matters too — English-only measurement under-reads several major markets, which PropScient corrects for in its native-language demand lanes.
What messaging resonates with Taiwanese buyers considering Sydney?
