Houses Firm While Units Take Longer

Murrumbeena's houses are holding their ground, prices up 3.8 per cent year on year even as low stock makes for genuine competition on what does list. The three-bedroom family home remains the clear sweet spot, and most stock is selling reasonably quickly given the tighter conditions right now.

Units tell a different story. Prices are down 14.5 per cent year on year, and days on market have stretched considerably, up 47.1 per cent to 50 days, even though unit sales volume is up 14.7 per cent. That gap is worth flagging honestly to any owner considering the unit market here right now.

Buyers can expect stronger stock levels through spring, and with appraisals rising after a quiet winter, sentiment is genuinely improving across this part of the market right now. Investors remain the dominant buyer type, with most activity sitting under $700,000.
