PropertyEye tracks live listings in Sydney and Brisbane today — Melbourne pages are built from published auction results (2021–2026), our price model and weekly clearance data. Live Melbourne tracking is on the roadmap.
Price model — what the model says a typical home here achieves at auction
| Configuration | Model estimate | Range | Comparable sales |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-bed unit | $527k | $480k–$595k | 69 |
| 2-bed unit | $719k | $642k–$797k | 69 |
| 3-bed unit | $1.11M | $996k–$1.24M | 69 |
Modelled from 146,492 Australian auction sales (2021–2026). Melbourne 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.

Crime — recorded criminal incidents, year ending March 2026
Index 100 — well above the Greater Melbourne average (50 = average) · 136.9 key incidents per 1,000 residents · year-on-year +21%
Most recorded: Steal from a motor vehicle (980) · Other theft (482) · Motor vehicle theft (324)
Key offences: homicide, assault, sexual offences, robbery, property damage, burglary/break-and-enter, theft (CSA subdivisions A10/A20/A30/A70/B20/B30/B40). Rates are per RESIDENT — suburbs with heavy visitor/entertainment traffic (CBD, nightlife strips) read high on this basis.

Getting to the CBD — peak, from the suburb centre
About ~20 min door-to-CBD: 17 min walk to Collins St/Elizabeth St #2 (light rail) + ~1 min typical peak wait + 2 min scheduled ride.
PTV GTFS (metropolitan train + tram) (open data) — scheduled weekday services, rail family only (buses excluded); walk = suburb centre to nearest station, crow-flies ×1.3 at 80 m/min; wait = half AM-peak headway capped at 6 min; ride = median scheduled time to the CBD hub. Estimates for the suburb CENTRE — your block differs.
Stock history — homes listed for sale in Southbank, archived Domain pages
Domain archive (monthly) 2016-05-22 → 2026-06-09 · 56 monthly points
56 monthly points from archived Domain search pages, 2016-05-22 → 2026-06-09 (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.
Auction market pace — Melbourne weekly clearance
Benchmark series (Domain): week to 2026-08-22 — 57.5% of 367 reported auctions. Our own tracking (withdrawn counted): week to 2026-08-22 — 51% of 424 scheduled. Lower clearance generally means more room for buyers to negotiate.
