Find the top real estate agents in South East SA

The South East region of South Australia is a diverse market where coastal lifestyle and productive rural hinterland sit side by side. Mount Gambier and Murray Bridge act as major service centres supporting hospitals, schools and regional trade, while the Fleurieu Peninsula, Kangaroo Island, the Limestone Coast and the Riverland each support different parts of the local economy, from holiday and tourism demand to agriculture and wine. Median prices have grown solidly, up 13.5% on the year to $675,000, the highest level in five years, and the median is 0.8% above the prior peak set in August 2026.

Recent shifts are shaping where buyers focus, with noticeably stronger interest in coastal towns such as Victor Harbor, Port Elliot and Goolwa while the Riverland and Murraylands remain important for buyers tied to irrigated horticulture and regional enterprises. Larger renewable energy developments and ongoing road and digital upgrades are gradually reshaping investment and commuting patterns across the district, and for sellers the picture is localised: expect different buyer sets depending on pocket. Homes are selling in a median of 36 days, much the same pace as a year ago. Auctions are clearing at 35% 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.

The average commission rate is 2.28% (around $15,000 on a median-priced home). Real estate agents in the South East region can charge differently across markets: in metro areas margins are often tighter, while regional rates often increase to reflect longer campaign periods and broader marketing reach. 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.
