The data on this website, including in the graphs and calculator, is approximate in nature and should not be relied upon.
Talking to a top local real estate agent is a good first step to determine what you may be required to pay to sell your property and to understand the local property market.
The graph and calculator use data collected by Which Real Estate Agent in 2019, and provides a state-wide average estimation of commission rate. The data presented should only be used as an indication of what you may be required to pay.
Be careful of extra fees that may be charged by a real estate agent. We recommend you properly review the agency agreement and cost schedules, so there are no surprises when you are presented with the final bill.
There is almost always room to negotiate commissions with agents. Do not be afraid to ask for an agent fee structure that favours your situation and ensures the agent does their job.
However, remember that an agent willing to drop their agent fees to rock-bottom are not likely to have your best interests at heart. Make sure you’re not just padding out someone else’s sales statistics - you should spend a little more to make more.

WHAT IS MY HOUSE PRICE ESTIMATE?

One of the most significant, but surprising, contributors to your property price is proximity to loud areas or industry.
Several nearby types of infrastructure may drive your house value estimation down. Public infrastructure such as busy roads or flight paths could generate a lot of noise pollution which may deter some buyers, leading to your property selling at a lower price.

Glen Waverley Suburb Overview
Glen Waverley is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 19 km south-east from Melbourne’s central business district. Its Local Government Area is the City of Monash. At the 2011 Census, Glen Waverley had a population of 39,204.
The suburb of Glen Waverley is generally bounded by Dandenong Creek to the east, Ferntree Gully Road to the south, Blackburn Road to the west and Highbury Road to the north. Springvale Road, a major north-south distributor, divides the suburb. The geography varies from river flats adjacent to the Dandenong Creek in the east to hilly in the region between the Dandenong Creek and Scotchmans Creek catchments.
The area was first settled in the mid nineteenth century and later developed as orchards and farming lands. The Post Office opened on 1 July 1885 as Black Flat in the area to the south of the railway line, was renamed Glen Waverley in 1921, and Glen Waverley South in 1963 on the same day Glen Waverley North office was renamed Glen Waverley.
Major development occurred in the 1950s to 1970s with rapid infilling of housing built to a generally high standard on large blocks. Much of that housing stock is now ageing and renewal is occurring, frequently involving subdivision of the larger blocks into townhouse development. The suburb was also the site of Victoria’s first McDonald’s restaurant, which opened on September 12, 1973, at the corner of High St and Springvale Rd.
The main street of Glen Waverley is Kingsway. In recent years, Kingsway has developed into a vibrant dining and entertainment area, with strong Asian influences. Kingsway also is taken up by Century City Walk, a cinema multiplex. It houses various eateries, a Strike Bowling Bar and a Village Cinema. There are now many hotels such as Novotel Glen Waverley, Hotel Ibis, Waverley International Hotel, and the Quest Hotel. There is also a large branch of the Monash Public Library Service. Construction of a 10-storey apartment, office, retail and carparking complex between the railway station and Kingsway will begin in mid-2011. The suburb also has numerous churches, and is home to the Victoria Police Academy, which occupies a former Roman Catholic seminary.
Glen Waverley has also developed to become somewhat of a business hub in metropolitan Melbourne, with many international companies including Toshiba, Ansell, NEC, and 3M all having their Australian headquarters in the suburb.
The majority of Glen Waverley residents identify as being Australian born. At the time of the 2011 Census, over 10,500 people responded with China as being their country of birth 22.4 per cent of residents. This compares with 3.7 per cent for Victoria overall and 3.1 per cent nationwide. Mandarin and Cantonese are the most spoken languages at home, following English. There are changes, too, in where Chinese migrants are coming from. The first wave of arrivals from Hong Kong and Malaysia has been replaced by more migrants from mainland China. In the City of Monash, 8.1 per cent of residents were born in China, up from 3 per cent in 2006. Most residents of the suburb are employed as professionals, clerical and administrative workers, or managers. According to a 2011 article by The Age Newspaper, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus were the most popular car choice for people in Glen Waverley.
Most of Glen Waverley’s voting booths are within the federal electorate of Bruce. The suburb is traditionally oriented towards the Liberal Party, but has become extremely marginal and competitive in recent years. This is evidenced in the 2010 federal election results, in which the combined booth results for the suburb produced a primary vote of 40.7% for the Labor Party, 46.0% for the Liberals, and 9.8% for the Greens. After preferences, the split was 49.99% for Labor and 50.01% for the Liberals.
Centro The Glen is a local regional shopping centre owned, managed and developed by Centro Properties Group. Although smaller than nearby shopping centres such as Knox or Chadstone, the Glen houses a substantial collection of shops, including supermarkets, a food court named Diners Life and a number of smaller clothing stores. Centro The Glen currently has over 207 specialty retail shops and 11 anchor retailers, thus making Centro The Glen one of the most significant shopping centres in the vicinity. Centro The Glen was the first shopping centre in suburban Victoria to contain a David Jones retail outlet.
