Find the top real estate agents in Sutherland Shire

The Sutherland Shire, also known as the Shire, sits between big coastal draws and extensive bushland, giving sellers a mix of beachside lifestyle and leafy family neighbourhoods. Cronulla’s beachside strip and the Port Hacking waterways anchor local lifestyle demand, while the Royal National Park provides a large natural backdrop that separates the coastline from southern villages. Median prices have edged up gently, up 3.7% on the year to $1,525,000. The median sits just off the cycle high reached in June 2026.

Homes are selling in a median of 25 days, much the same pace as a year ago, the slowest pace in two years. Auctions are clearing at 58% over the past year.⁽¹⁾ There have been fewer sales than a year ago, down 5.7% on the year, the lowest transaction count in two years.
