PropertyEye tracks live listings in Sydney and Brisbane today — Canberra pages are built from published auction results (2021–2026), our price model and weekly clearance data. Live Canberra tracking is on the roadmap.
Price model — what the model says a typical home here achieves at auction
| Configuration | Model estimate | Range | Comparable sales |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-bed house | $814k | $727k–$902k | 29 |
| 4-bed house | $920k | $751k–$1.11M | 29 |
| 5-bed house | $988k | $806k–$1.19M | 29 |
Modelled from 146,492 Australian auction sales (2021–2026). Canberra 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.

11 monthly points from archived Domain search pages, 2020-07-27 → 2026-07-12 (Domain-only — systematically lower than the total market; archive coverage has gaps and they stay visible as gaps). Historical record, not a live count — live Melbourne tracking is on the roadmap.
