Can One Burleigh Waters House Sale Really Establish Your Home's Value?

For a Burleigh Waters owner thinking about selling, the recent market demonstrates why one nearby transaction should never be treated as a complete valuation. Even detached homes of similar size can sell at considerably different levels, while townhouses form another category again.

Recent house sales include $1.107 million for the three-bedroom home at 7 Ballerina Street on 1 September, $1.4 million for the four-bedroom home at 10 Lorikeet Lane on 9 September and $1.9 million for 6 Joy Avenue on 11 September. Higher-priced transactions included $2.4 million for 12 Sittella Crescent and $4.15 million for 22 Bluejay Street.

Townhouses should be assessed separately. Properties at 1/4-6 Snowgum Court and 22/18 Bottlewood Court both sold during the requested period, although their prices were withheld. The closest published townhouse result was $1.052 million for 66/220 Christine Avenue on 18 August, two days before the preferred window.

For sellers, land, water position where applicable, renovation, floorplan, parking and overall finish can shift a property into a different buyer bracket.

A Burleigh Waters appraisal should therefore use several closely matched sales instead of relying on the highest—or nearest—transaction.
