This seemed like a popular destination for Australians to purchase property. I saw many listings around town and even in some of the small townships had real estate listings; based on the prices, I don’t think they were geared towards locals. Also, I do not think Vanuatu allows for foreign ownership so the land would be leased for a set amount of time and only the house could be owned… Prices seemed to start around 150-200k Australian Dollars for modest sized places and the prices went up from there. Vanuatu is still an off the beaten path destination. Car and scooter rental is very expensive here for some reason, starting at $75 USD per day. Public buses go most places but patience is a virtue if travelling by public transport… you’re on island time over here.
