Kew

Deep Demand, Selective Buyers

Kew is a large, prestigious market with real depth in the family-house segment, driven by its cluster of sought-after schools. More than a hundred and twenty three-bedroom homes and over a hundred four-bedroom homes sold across the year, so the buyer pool is substantial.

That depth comes with selectivity. Three-bedroom houses near $1.688m are clearing at under six in ten, softer than the smaller two-bedroom homes, a sign there is plenty of stock and buyers can afford to compare. At the top, five-bedroom homes near $3.6m are sitting around eleven weeks with fewer than half selling under the hammer, while a well-priced apartment market gives downsizers a clear option.

With more choice building into spring, the demand in Kew is genuine but discerning. A price anchored to this year's real sales, and strong presentation, are what separate a home that sells from one that lingers among the options.
