Heidelberg West

A Softer Year at the Entry Point

Heidelberg West's median prices have eased this year, houses down 1.7 per cent to $780,000 and units down 9.9 per cent to $630,000, the most affordable entry point in this part of the area. House sales are up slightly though, 2.2 per cent to 141, with clearance climbing 17.6 per cent to 66.7 per cent.

The apartment market has cooled more noticeably, unit sales down 46.8 per cent and days on market nearly doubling, up 97.4 per cent to 75 days, a clear signal that unit buyers here are being far more selective than a year ago.

With just over half of homes houses and the remainder a mix of semi-detached and apartment stock, Heidelberg West's improving house clearance stands in contrast to its considerably slower unit market this year, worth noting for anyone considering either bracket.
