Find the top real estate agents in Upper Goulburn Valley

The Upper Goulburn Valley is a patchwork of distinctive market types rather than a single suburb story. Sellers here sit between an established lakeside holiday economy around Lake Eildon and Nagambie's lifestyle pull, the alpine draw of Mount Buller and Mansfield, and quieter agricultural and hobby-farm pockets through Violet Town, Strathbogie and Alexandra. Median prices have been broadly flat, down 0.8% on the year to $595,000. The median sits just off the cycle high reached in February 2023.

Recent shifts are sharpening those differences, with visitor-facility improvements lifting short-stay demand around Lake Eildon and Mount Buller while commuter pockets near Seymour and Kilmore draw steady attention from people seeking regional lifestyle with reasonable access to the city. Homes are selling in a median of 84 days, much the same pace as a year ago. Auctions are clearing at 36% over the past year.⁽¹⁾ Transaction activity has been running sharply higher, up 25.2% on the year.

Real estate agents in the Upper Goulburn Valley often emphasise local knowledge and experience and a focused understanding of the local market. The top 3 local agents handled 13% of sales over the past year.

The average commission rate is 2.00% (around $12,000 on a median-priced home). In regional and lifestyle markets such as parts of the Upper Goulburn Valley, rates often increase to reflect longer campaign periods and broader marketing reach.
