Are there any tax savings when buying property in Australia?

Yes. 

New Buildings in Australia qualify for significant depreciation tax savings. (Up to 60% of the purchase price may be given back to you in the form of a tax deduction)

Additionally properties bought for rental investment allow the owner to claim all expenses on the investment against future rental income, and overseas buyers of Australian property can also quarantines these tax deductions incurred in excess of the rental income to off-set future capital gains tax.

Interest income on any mortgage loan is allowed as a tax deduction.

We have a very good Australiantax report on this website for new migrants, returning expats and foreign investors.
