How much does a real estate agent charge in Melbourne?
Real estate agent commission in Melbourne typically ranges from 1.5%–3% of the sale price, depending on the agent, suburb, and property type. On a $800,000 property, that's $12,000–$24,000. Some agents charge a flat fee of $5,000–$15,000. Commission rates in Melbourne are negotiable — always compare rates and what's included in the marketing package before signing. A Couple Quotes connects you with vetted Melbourne agents so you can compare commission rates and recent results side by side.
How do I find a good real estate agent in Melbourne?
The best way to find a trusted Melbourne real estate agent is to compare multiple agents based on: their recent sales results in your specific suburb (not just the broader Melbourne area), their average days on market, their commission rate and marketing package, and their communication style. Ask each agent for a comparative market analysis (CMA) of your property. A Couple Quotes connects you with vetted Melbourne agents so you can compare and choose with confidence.
How long does it take to sell a property in Melbourne?
The average days on market in Melbourne varies by suburb, property type, and market conditions. In a strong seller's market, well-priced properties in Melbourne can sell in 2–4 weeks. In a balanced or buyer's market, 6–12 weeks is more typical. Properties priced above market value can sit for 3–6 months. Your agent will advise on current conditions in your specific Melbourne suburb and recommend a pricing strategy to achieve the fastest sale at the best price.
Should I sell my Melbourne property by auction or private treaty?
Auction is popular in Melbourne for properties with broad buyer appeal and in competitive markets — it creates urgency, sets a clear deadline, and can drive prices above reserve when multiple bidders compete. Auction campaigns typically run 4 weeks. Private treaty suits properties with a more specific buyer profile, when the seller needs more flexibility on timing, or in slower markets. Your Melbourne agent will recommend the best method based on your property type, suburb, and current market conditions.
What is the best time of year to sell in Melbourne?
Spring (September–November) is traditionally the busiest selling season in Melbourne, with more buyers active and properties presenting well in good weather. Autumn (March–May) is also strong with serious buyers and less competition than spring. Summer (December–February) is quieter due to holidays, but less competition can work in your favour. Winter (June–August) has the fewest listings, which means less competition — well-presented Melbourne properties can still sell well. Your agent will advise on current market conditions.
Do I need a conveyancer or solicitor to sell in Melbourne?
Yes — you need a licensed conveyancer or solicitor to prepare the contract of sale and handle the legal transfer of property in Melbourne. Conveyancing fees in Melbourne typically cost $800–$2,500 for a standard residential sale. A solicitor costs $1,500–$3,500 but provides broader legal advice. Your real estate agent can recommend trusted local conveyancers, or you can find one independently. Always engage your conveyancer before listing so the contract is ready when a buyer is found.
