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?
There are several variables that can affect property values in Montmorency. To accurately estimate the value of your Montmorency property, these variables need to be taken into account.
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.
With so many potential factors affecting a property’s price, it’s best to do some research before talking to agents.
Figure out the value of your home, and start your selling journey with some confidence. Get started by requesting a property appraisal from an agent today.

Get an idea of how much your property is valued in the present day, starting with an independent property value report.

Montmorency Suburb Overview
Montmorency is a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 18 km north-east from Melbourne’s Central Business District. Its Local Government Area is the City of Banyule. At the 2011 Census, Montmorency had a population of 8,759.
Montmorency was named after a local farm, Montmorency Estate, which in turn was named for the town of Montmorency, Val-d’Oise, where the French Enlightenment philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau lived briefly. Residents of Montmorency often refer to the suburb as ‘Monty’, and the nickname is incorporated into some local business names. The population is predominately Australian born, middle-aged, married and Christian.
Merchant Stuart Alexander Donaldson, the first Premier of New South Wales, owned the farming property known as ‘The Montmorency Estate’ until the 1840s. The first evidence of a township was the building of a Presbyterian church in 1917 in the midst of small rural landholdings. A primary school was opened in 1922, the year before Montmorency station was opened on the Hurstbridge railway line. Electricity was connected to the area in 1926. Montmorency Post Office opened around September 1923.
Whilst there was a residential nucleus from the 1920s, most of Montmorency consisted of orchards, dairying, and poultry farms until after the Second World War. The estimated population in 1922 was 200, including weekenders.
In 1950 the estimated population was 600, and facilities extended to two churches, a public hall, a sports ground and a tennis court. By the end of the decade the population had increased fivefold, although still with unoccupied building sites which had fine views. A modern shopping centre and factories had been built. The high school was opened in 1969.
St. Francis Xavier Primary School, located on Mayona Road, is undergoing construction of a new building which will feature a library, computer lab and 4 class rooms. This building is due to be finished and handed over by 10 June 2011.
Montmorency South Primary School has also got a new building under construction which will feature a big basketball stadium.
The main commercial street is Were Street. A three storey high ornamental aeration windmill stands at the corner of Were Street and Rattray Road. The footpaths of Were Street are inlaid with mosaic pictures representing scenes from oral histories of the suburb. This shopping strip is notable for the relatively low proportion of national chain stores and franchises among its businesses.
There is a second business precinct located 1.1 km to the south east of Were Street, on Grand Boulevard, mainly catering to small offices. In Mountain View Road there is an RSL which serves counter meals, and also a lawn bowls club, both overlooking the Petrie Park sporting grounds.
Montmorency Football Club, an Australian Rules football team, competes in the Northern Football League. Its playing field and clubhouse are located at Montmorency Park in the green belt between Para Road and the Plenty River. Lower Plenty Football Club are also in the same league and are also based at Montmorency Park.
The suburb has one high school;Montmorency Secondary College, and three primary schools;Saint Francis Xavier, Montmorency South and Montmorency. Montmorency has hilly parklands adjoining the Plenty River on its western side and several neighbourhood parks, particularly in its south-east sector.
