Kew East

Prepared Buyers Reward Good Homes

Kew East is seeing genuine competition for quality homes this month, driven by prepared buyers with finance ready and conviction in place. While some buyers hesitate in the broader market, that hesitation works in a vendor's favour, there is simply less competition for the well-positioned home.

The shortage of quality stock in this pocket of the inner east is not easing. When a well-presented family home comes to market, the most prepared buyers are ready to act.

Confidence is building across most segments as the market moves toward the warmer months. More choice is expected through spring, so owners moving now are meeting buyers ahead of the competition.
