Estimated Agent Commission

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.

Golden Point Suburb Overview

Golden Point is a suburb of Ballarat, Victoria, Australia located south-east of the CBD. It is the oldest settlement in Greater Ballarat. Gold was discovered at Poverty Point on 21 August 1851 by James Dunlop and James Reagan sparking the Ballarat gold rush. Golden Point was the site of what was known as the Ballarat diggings and for at least a decade the focal point of the original Ballarat township was Main Street. At the 2006 census, Golden Point had a population of 2,147.

Golden Point is bordered by the Yarrowee River to the west, Steinfield, Eureka and Callow Streets to the north, Later Street to the east and Gladstone, Magpie and Elsworth Streets to the south. The topography varies, from the floodplain of Specimen Vale from Golden Point Hill.

Golden Point is notable as the location of the Sovereign Hill Historic Park which depicts the area around Main Street;the Observation lookout from which the Ballarat skyline can be viewed and the Ballarat Gold Museum.

The area was once known as Poverty Point, however on 21 August 1851, prospectors James Dunlop and James Reagan passing through the area struck a few ounces of gold and the announcement of this discovery is attributed to sparking the Ballarat Gold Rush. A historical marker for the location of the discovery is located in a reserve just off Clayton Street.

With the establishment of the township of Ballarat West, Main Street went into steep decline in the 1860s and 1870s before being almost completely decimated by a disastrous fire.

In 1970, Sovereign Hill Historic Park was constructed, with the aim of recreating the original Golden Point settlement, although set on the hill rather than the original valley, it features many of the early timber buildings which once lined the Main Street, Golden Point in the 1850s, along with many aspects of life and industry from that era.

Golden Point has a number of restaurants including Italian, Chinese and Indian cuisines as well as accommodation, convention and function venues which capitalise on the proximity of Sovereign Hill.
