Homes in Elsternwick, VIC

Byrz holds records for 223 homes in Elsternwick.

What these pages are

Every home here has its own page showing what Byrz holds about it: what is stated about the property, where each piece of information came from, and any upcoming inspection times. These are records pages, not ads. Nobody paid to be listed here, and when our software has read something from a home's photos, that reading is always labelled as one.

Each home's page carries its own paths for asking us to correct something or to take the page down.

About Elsternwick

These figures describe the whole area, not any single home in it. They are a way to get to know the suburb before you look closely at one address.

SEIFA describes the area, not the people or households in it. These indexes are computed by the Australian Bureau of Statistics for Elsternwick, the statistical area this suburb sits in. A statistical area is a Bureau region of a few thousand people, so it can take in more than one suburb. A decile places the area against every other area in Australia: 1 means the lowest tenth on that index and 10 means the highest tenth.

Elsternwick, by the numbers

Figures for the whole suburb, not for any single home.

Byrz does not see every listing in Australia, so these figures describe the listings it did see in this suburb. Each one is a share of that group over a single period, never a count compared from one period to the next, because a change in how many listings Byrz sees would otherwise look like a change in the market.

These figures describe a suburb over the period shown, using listings Byrz has observed. They do not describe any particular home, they cannot tell you what any home will sell for, and they are not a valuation and Byrz does not give one.

What this measures

The mix of homes currently for sale in this suburb, as a share of the listings Byrz can see. This is the single most useful thing to read before any suburb price figure, because houses and units sell for very different prices: a suburb that is mostly apartments and a suburb that is mostly houses will show very different typical prices even if the homes themselves are similar. The mix tells you which kind of suburb you are looking at.

Asking prices for sale here

Byrz needs to have seen at least 10 of these in a suburb before it will publish a figure, and it has not seen that many here. A share worked out from a handful of listings moves too much to tell you anything about the suburb, so Byrz shows nothing rather than a number you should not rely on.

What this measures

How the asking prices of the homes currently for sale in this suburb are spread across price ranges. An asking price is what the seller is advertising, which is not what the home will sell for. Byrz shows the spread rather than a single number because two suburbs can share a middle price and still be nothing alike: one may have almost every home in one range, and the other a wide spread from cheap units to large houses.

What this measures

The share of homes currently for sale in this suburb being sold by auction rather than by private treaty, which is the ordinary way of listing a price and negotiating. This matters to a first home buyer for one practical reason: at an auction there is normally no cooling off period and the contract is unconditional on the day, so your finance and your building inspection need to be sorted out before you raise your hand.

Open homes this week

What this measures

The share of the homes for sale in this suburb that have an open home in the next seven days. It is a rough measure of how much there is to go and see this weekend. A listing with no open home is not necessarily unavailable: many agents show homes by appointment instead, and Byrz cannot see those.

Time to sell (sold campaigns only)

33 days

the typical wait

Quicker quarter: 23 days
Slower quarter: 48 days
Sales counted: 33

Of the campaigns that ended in this suburb, 51.5% ended without a recorded sale.

Listings Byrz has observed · Listed in the 12 months to 13 September 2026

Listings counted: 33

Sold campaigns only; withdrawn ones are not counted.

This is worked out from the 33 sales where Byrz saw both the day the home was listed and the day it sold. Another 35 listings in this suburb, 51.5% of them, stopped being advertised without a recorded sale, and Byrz has no reliable end date for those, so they are left out. Homes that take a long time to sell are the ones most likely to be pulled from the market, so the real wait in this suburb is probably a little longer than the figure shown.

What this measures

How many days passed between a home being listed and being sold, for the sales Byrz has observed in this suburb. The middle figure is the typical wait: half the homes sold faster and half took longer. The two figures either side of it show the quicker quarter and the slower quarter, which tells you how much the wait varies here. A long typical wait can mean sellers are asking more than buyers will pay, and a short one usually means you will need to be ready to move quickly.

Sellers cutting their asking price

8.8%

of sellers cut their asking price

Listings counted: 7

Listings Byrz has observed · Advertised in the 3 months to 13 September 2026

Listings counted: 80

Homes still listed; those already sold are not counted.

Source: Computed by Byrz from property listings it has observed. Not an official government series.

What this measures

The share of homes that have been advertised for sale in this suburb over the last three months and are still listed, where the seller lowered the advertised price at least once, and the typical size of that cut. It is the closest thing to a measure of how much room there is to negotiate. A high share means sellers here are having to come down to meet buyers; a low share means they are holding firm, and a low offer is more likely to be refused. Homes that have already sold are not counted, because Byrz sees them for only part of the period and they would pull the figure down for the wrong reason.

Rent against asking price

What this measures

How the rent a home of this size attracts compares with what homes of that size are being advertised for. It is a rough guide for anyone weighing up buying a home to rent out, and it is gross: it counts no rates, no insurance, no strata levies, no repairs and no weeks without a tenant.

Recorded offences over time

Byrz does not hold enough history for this suburb yet to show how it has changed over time. It keeps one reading per period, so this fills in as the periods pass.

What this measures

How the rate of recorded offences in the police district covering this suburb has moved over recent periods. A police district follows police boundaries rather than suburb boundaries, so it can take in several suburbs or parts of them.
