Caulfield South

An Upsizer's Sweet Spot

Caulfield South sits right in the upsizer's sweet spot. Three and four-bedroom family homes, priced from around $1.639m to $2.101m, land squarely in the $1.2m to $2m range where buyers are most active, and they are clearing solidly, the four-bedroom homes at around two in three from a deep pool of sales. Two-bedroom houses are clearing at close to nine in ten.

Condition matters throughout. Turn-key homes that are beautifully presented and ready to move into are drawing the strongest competition, in keeping with the confidence now returning to this market.

With clearance rates consistently healthy and buyers back engaging confidently, the market has shifted towards balance and momentum is building into spring. For vendors of a quality family home, the timing is genuinely encouraging. Trusting sound advice on pricing and presentation, and bringing the home to market well prepared, is what turns strong upsizer demand into a competitive result.
