Suburb intelligence from Adelaide's published auction results — all Adelaide suburbs

PropertyEye tracks live listings in Sydney and Brisbane today — Adelaide pages are built from published auction results (2021–2026), our price model and weekly clearance data. Live Adelaide tracking is on the roadmap.

Price model — what the model says a typical home here achieves at auction

ConfigurationModel estimateRangeComparable sales
3-bed house$1.75M$1.4M–$2.15M40
4-bed house$1.93M$1.54M–$2.37M40
5-bed house$2.17M$1.52M–$3.01M40

Modelled from 146,492 Australian auction sales (2021–2026). Adelaide cells run on the base model (suburb prior + configuration + time) without the Sydney-only land/school/transport features — ranges are honest about the wider uncertainty. Estimates from comparable auction results — not valuations or financial advice.
