Find the top real estate agents in Western Suburbs

The Western Suburbs mix coastal lifestyle and established inner suburban living. Cottesloe and City Beach bring coastal appeal, while the riverfront areas of Dalkeith and Peppermint Grove attract buyers seeking privacy and long-term quality. Claremont and Subiaco act as village centres, with Subiaco's café and theatre strip and Claremont's retail hub providing strong everyday amenity. Downsizers are increasingly drawn to the quieter pockets, while younger professionals favour Subiaco, Wembley and parts of Nedlands for lifestyle and convenience. Median prices have grown solidly, up 11.5% on the year to $1,700,000, the highest level in five years. The median is 2.4% above the prior peak set in April 2026.

Recent market movement has been shaped by steady renewal around the main centres and improving local connections rather than a single dramatic change. Homes are selling in a median of 38 days, faster than a year ago, the fastest pace in five years. Auctions are clearing at 55% over the past year.⁽¹⁾ Transaction activity has been well down, down 21.5% on the year, the lowest transaction count in five years. Local amenity upgrades and ongoing investment in schools and parks are quietly supporting demand across family-friendly streets in Floreat and Shenton Park.

Real estate agents in the Western Suburbs bring local knowledge and experience and a broad reach across the area's coastal and riverside pockets. This is a fragmented market, with the top 3 agents handling just 9% of sales over the past year. Their median sale of $1,850,000 sits 8.8% above the broader area median of $1,700,000, 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, converting 74.7% of their listings into a successful sale, 6.0 percentage points ahead of the area's 68.7%.

The average commission rate is 2.14% (around $36,000 on a median-priced home). These rates often reflect longer campaign periods and the need for 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.
