Volume Is High, Buyers Are Selective

Mooroolbark remains the highest-volume suburb in this update, with 415 house sales this year, even as that number has eased 7.4 per cent against genuinely low stock levels. The median price is up 6.9 per cent to $866,000, and days on market have improved sharply, down 33.3 per cent to just 18 days.

Buyers here are engaged but noticeably more selective, clearance has eased to 59.1 per cent, consistent with the pattern directors are seeing across the wider area, buyers are no longer racing to outbid each other but will still pay well with a little patience and the right presentation. Renovated and mid-century modern homes continue to be particularly sought after.

With first-home buyers dominant in the $700,000 to $1.2 million range, and many sellers favouring private sale over auction, well-presented homes in Mooroolbark are still finding genuinely committed buyers.
