Find the top real estate agents in Fremantle

Fremantle is a compact port city with a strong heritage feel and a lively beachside character. Its mix of limestone cottages, warehouse conversions and seaside apartments gives sellers a clear story: walkable streets, an arts and hospitality scene centred on the South Terrace café strip, and Rottnest Island as a major tourism anchor. Downsizers and lifestyle seekers cluster in the CBD and South Fremantle, while families favour quieter riverside pockets such as East Fremantle. Median prices have been running hot, up 24.4% on the year to $1,225,000, the highest level in five years, though the pace may not be sustained. The median is 2.1% above the prior peak set in July 2026.

Homes are selling in a median of 43 days, much the same pace as a year ago. Auctions are clearing at 47% over the past year.⁽¹⁾ There have been fewer sales than a year ago, down 11.8% on the year, the lowest transaction count in five years. The Fremantle line and improved cycling links have become an important convenience for buyers commuting into Perth, and short-stay demand remains a notable influence near the waterfront and Rottnest-facing properties. Modest infill and renewal activity has sharpened competition in parts of South Fremantle and North Fremantle.

Real estate agents in Fremantle often emphasise local knowledge and experience and a focused understanding of the local market. The top 3 local agents handled 15% of sales over the past year. Their median sale of $1,680,000 sits 37.1% above the broader area median of $1,225,000, which could suggest they specialise at the premium end of the market, worth bearing in mind if your home sits closer to the area median. Their listings sold in a median of 51 days, 8 days slower than the area's typical 43 days, converting 70.5% of their listings into a successful sale, tracking the area's 70.3%.

The average commission rate is 2.07% (around $25,000 on a median-priced home). Rates can vary across suburbs and between listing types, and they often reflect longer campaign periods and broader marketing reach. When selecting an agent, look beyond the commission rate.
