Ashwood is the more mixed, more affordable neighbour to Ashburton, and right now its quickest-moving stock is at the smaller end. Two-bedroom units are clearing at close to nine in ten, a standout result, drawing first-home buyers and downsizers after low-maintenance homes as more choice comes to market.
The house market is steadier and takes a little longer. Three-bedroom homes near $1.29m are selling in roughly eight weeks and clearing at around seven in ten, while four-bedroom homes near $1.56m ease into the high fifties. The pace is measured rather than slow, and well-presented homes are still finding their buyer.
For unit and townhouse owners the current demand is a real opportunity worth using. For house sellers, presentation and a price anchored to recent local sales are what turn steady interest into a firm offer, particularly as buyers weigh up a growing field of options.

Good property management should remove uncertainty, not create more of it.
If you're considering engaging a property manager, one of the first questions you're likely to ask is: how much does property management actually cost?
Owning an investment property and owning a good investment property are not necessarily the same thing. It’s an important distinction, and one that property investors should revisit regularly.
The Reserve Bank's decision to leave the cash rate on hold at 4.35 per cent is welcome news for buyers, sellers and businesses alike. While it's not a silver bullet for Melbourne's property market, it should provide some reassurance that the aggressive phase of the interest rate tightening cycle may be easing.
