What makes selling in Malvern unique?
Malvern, in Melbourne's inner east, combines leafy, tree-lined streets and period houses with pockets of low-rise apartments and modern townhouses. This mix of housing attracts a broad buyer pool, from established families seeking space and access to local schools and amenities to professionals and downsizers looking for lower-maintenance living within easy reach of the city.
Different properties in Malvern can appeal to very different audiences, so agents with suburb-specific experience understand those differences and can tailor pricing, presentation and marketing to the buyers most likely to be interested, ensuring the campaign suits both the home and the intended audience.

What to pay your Malvern agent
In Victoria, real estate agent commission rates typically range from 0.5% to 4.95%. Our data shows the commission rates in Malvern average around 1.73%, or approximately $19,186 on a median-priced home.
Real estate commission rates are not regulated, meaning agents can set their own fees. Knowing the average commission in your suburb gives you a useful benchmark when comparing proposals.
Agent commissions are usually negotiable. While commission is an important consideration, it shouldn't be the only factor when choosing an agent. Instead, look for agents with local expertise who can justify their rate and clearly explain how they plan to maximise your sale outcome.
