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.

Find the Best Real Estate Agent In Ridgewood
Ridgewood Suburb Overview
Ridgewood is an outer suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located 37 kilometres north of Perth’s central business district. Is is part of the City of Wanneroo local government area.
Ridgewood is bordered to the north by Butler, to the south by Clarkson and to the west by Merriwa. The Joondalup railway line reserve separates Ridgewood from the rural locality of Nowergup in the east.
Ridgewood’s name refers to the wooded terrain on the Swan Coastal Plain. The suburb was formerly a part of Merriwa until 1998, when Merriwa was split in two along Connolly Drive. The eastern half of Merriwa was gazzetted as Ridgewood. At the time, only south Ridgewood was populated, containing the “Carnegie Private Estate” that was built in the mid-1990s. The estate had a small population of 968..
There were campaigns for Ridgewood’s separation from Merriwa as far back as 1994, not long after the Carnegie Estate had been built by developers Town and Country Holdings. The developers lodged a request with the City of Wanneroo to bifurcate the area from Merriwa and rename the new locality “Carnegie”, after the estate, which in turn was named in honour of David Carnegie, one of the earliest explorers of Western Australia. Although the request was rejected, the City supported the excision of the estate from Merriwa, leading to the creation of Ridgewood four years later.
The northern half of Ridgewood, “The Vistas”, is a new development by Satterley, marketed as a part of the “Brighton Estate” that covers the adjoining suburbs of Butler and Jindalee.
Ridgewood had a population of 1,292 at the ABS 2006 census, an increase of 324 persons since the 2001 census. The population is predicted to grow exponentially, peaking at 5,903 in 2016. The demographics of Ridgewood’s residents are similar to Merriwa, with the same average age of 33 and income levels slightly below the national average.
Like all surrounding suburbs, Christianity is the predominant religious affiliation of Ridgewood’s residents, accounting for 48.5% of the population across various Christian denominations. However, the suburb contains no churches or places of worship. 27.4% declared no religion.
Ridgewood is primarily a residential suburb, with a BP service station in its south-west and almost no other facilities or retail establishments. However, it is positioned directly in between the suburbs of Butler, Merriwa and Clarkson, which all contain a sizeable number of shops and services that Ridgewood residents rely on, including the large Ocean Keys Shopping Centre in Clarkson.
Like other neighbouring suburbs, Ridgewood contains several parks. Ridgewood Park in the south-west is the largest by area, and contains a sports pitch and a large pond.
Telephone services are provided by the Quinns Rocks telephone exchange.
The West Coast Language Development Centre is the only education establishment in Ridgewood, one of five schools in Western Australia that serve language-disabled children.
