Should I move back, I will be unable to afford a home in Melbourne. Crazy prices. My son and his wife too moved to the US, but settled in the bay area. I would love to spend a month or two on vacation in Melbourne but not move back. Driving a Tesla on the great ocean road would really thrilling in FSD mode. It is more than a couple of decades since I left, and this is home now
I don't see house prices coming down much in global metro cities including Melbourne, London, Shanghai, NYC etc. Too many wealthy people are willing to buy houses at ever higher prices. A suburb, close to a large metro city is a nice affordable choice. Since our plans are long term, I went for a Tesla WC. One advantage of this charging option is that one can run 2 Tesla WCs on a single set of set of wires, should we decide to ditch our second ICE as well.
