The commission rate in Fairfield is on average lower than most other suburbs in Australia, which means you get to keep some more of your profit compared to sellers in other areas. Don’t forget that you can still negotiate a better rate with your agent, or how much goes into advertising.
Use the real estate agent fee calculator below to determine how much it may cost to sell your property in Victoria. Amounts calculated include 10% GST, but exclude other costs an agent may charge such as advertising and marketing.
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.

One of the most significant, but surprising, contributors to your property price is proximity to loud areas or industry.

Fairfield Suburb Overview
Fairfield is a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, 6 km north-east from Melbourne’s Central Business District. Its Local Government Area are the Cities of Darebin and Yarra. At the 2011 Census, Fairfield had a population of 5,946.
Yarra Bend is a locality in Fairfield.
Fairfield Post Office opened on 21 February 1887. It has since relocated. In 1962, Fairfield was part of the City of Heidelberg. In that year, it and Alphington became part of the City of Northcote, which, in 1994 became part of the City of Darebin.
Fairfield is serviced by the Fairfield railway station, which is on the Hurstbridge line.
The Melbourne 246, 250, 508, 510, 546, 567, and 609 bus routes operate around the area.
Fairfield is predominantly residential, with a small north-eastern pocket remaining a light industrial area. It also features a three-storey hotel, the Grandview Hotel, completed in 1888. License was granted by the Licensing Court on 15 Aug 1888.
HM Prison Fairlea, a female prison, was located on Yarra Bend Road from 1956 until it closed in 1996.
Because it is situated on what many regard as the fringes of Melbourne’s popular and much-revived ‘inner city’, gentrification has been strong, and property prices are high. To the south is the Yarra River and surrounding parkland, and the popular Fairfield Boathouse.
Commercial activity is focused on the shopping strip on Station Street and Wingrove Street, opposite Fairfield railway station. Fairfield’s commercial outlets have prospered in recent years, with a recent influx of cafes, bars and specialist shops to Station Street.
Adjacent to the railway station, facing north-east, is the Fairfield Industrial Dog Object, a 6m tall wooden dog.
