Find the top real estate agents in Adelaide

Adelaide is a compact, liveable capital with a mix of heritage terraces, character villas and newer apartment options that suit a wide range of sellers. The Adelaide CBD's compact city core and the Adelaide Hills' established lifestyle hinterland give sellers two very different value propositions to talk about when they market a property. Median prices have made a clear move higher, up 10.9% on the year to $876,000, the highest level in five years, and the median is 0.1% above the prior peak set in July 2026.

This month a few major transport and precinct changes are nudging buyer patterns across the rings. Homes are selling in a median of 21 days, much the same pace as a year ago, the slowest pace in two years. Auctions are clearing at 45% over the past year⁽¹⁾, and transaction activity has been broadly steady, down 4.5% on the year, the lowest transaction count in two years. Port Adelaide's emerging waterfront precinct is drawing interest from renovators and apartment buyers looking for a mix of industrial and urban character.

The average commission rate is 1.71% (around $15,000 on a median-priced home). Real estate agents in Adelaide typically emphasise local knowledge and experience and broad reach when marketing a home, and these factors matter because campaign strategies and the range of buyers differ between inner-city, suburban and Adelaide Hills markets. Picking an agent with a focused understanding of the local market can help shape a campaign that matches what buyers in your suburb are looking for. When selecting an agent, look beyond the commission rate. Compare their specific track record in your local area, their recent sales volume, and their experience with properties similar to yours.
