Start with a property
Open the research tool and paste a supported listing link or type the address and suburb. Check that the resolved property details match your intended address before using the result.
Understand the evidence
A suburb’s sales record is context, not a set of automatically equivalent properties. Compare type, date and other known characteristics; condition, layout and legal issues may be absent from the data. Read the source cutoff and sample size.
Our methodology explains classification, sample thresholds and limitations. Never treat a suburb-wide median as the value of a particular home.
A worked example
Suppose a hypothetical apartment guide is $700,000–$750,000, and an illustrative set of five past apartment sales is $610,000, $660,000, $720,000, $760,000 and $910,000. The median is $720,000. That arithmetic does not establish whether the apartment is worth $720,000: dates, size, condition, parking and strata liabilities could differ.
The useful next question is which records are comparable and what evidence is missing. These figures are an invented teaching example, not a report of actual sales.
Choose your next step
Use the checks to prepare questions for the selling agent, inspector or conveyancer. If you want someone to inspect, appraise, negotiate or bid on your behalf, consider engaging a licensed buyers agent. Personal reports and saved briefs are not published as search pages.
