Box Hill South is one of the more tightly held pockets in the area, with about seven in ten homes owner-occupied, and that shows up in how the market is behaving. The family core is genuinely competitive: three-bedroom houses around $1.20m are clearing at close to eight in ten and selling inside about seven weeks, and even two-bedroom homes are posting strong pass rates.
The picture changes at the top. Five-bedroom houses carry a median above $2.18m, and only about half are selling under the hammer, a clear sign that the premium end is where buyers are taking their time.
For most owners here that is encouraging. If your home sits in the three or four-bedroom range, well presented and sensibly priced, the buyers are active and moving. If you are selling at the top of the market, the advice is patience and a price grounded in recent local results rather than the peak figures of a year ago.

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.
