Blackburn North

Steady Demand From Top to Bottom

Blackburn North remains the steadiest performer in this part of the east, with demand spread evenly from three through to five bedrooms. Three-bedroom houses are clearing at 75 per cent in around five weeks, four-bedroom homes at 74 per cent, and even five-bedroom properties are holding at 67 per cent, a rare result when larger homes elsewhere are more selective.

Almost the entire market here is family houses, close to four in five owned outright or with a mortgage rather than rented, and buyers are showing real confidence, with more opens attendance than July and clearance rates improving across the board.

With first-home buyers active and the $700,000 to $1.2 million range drawing the strongest interest, buyers are enjoying more options and taking the time to do their due diligence rather than rushing. For owners here, that even demand across every size is genuinely useful, since the buyer pool doesn't thin out as you move up in price.
