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.

North Hobart Suburb Overview
North Hobart is a suburb of the city of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. As its name suggests, it lies directly north of the CBD.
The main street of North Hobart is Elizabeth Street, which extends northward from the Elizabeth Street Mall in the city, through North Hobart, and then becomes the Main Road in New Town and continues through many suburbs to Glenorchy and beyond.
The most recent median house price for North Hobart is $420,855 and the median unit price is $410,000.
Up until the late 1980s North Hobart was considered a downmarket and rough suburb. However, its fortunes changed for the better during this period and continues to grow to this day.
Elizabeth Street contains many of the restaurants and cafes for which North Hobart is known. The area could be compared with Lygon Street in Melbourne, except on a much smaller scale.
Restaurants in the area include two Italian restaurants, one of which was established by and named for City of Hobart alderman Marti Zucco. Asian food dominates the strip with Indian Annapurna Indian Cuisine, Thai and Chinese all being popular. Other restaurants serve Mexican and Turkish food.
Located in North Hobart is South African restaurant Nando’s;the first in the state.
Fast food outlet Hungry Jack’s had their first Tasmanian store in North Hobart which opened in 1997, though it is located a block away from the restaurant strip. Subway also has a store in the area. Local Hobart chicken takeaway chain Legs and Breasts, which has a number of stores scattered around Hobart, also has a North Hobart store. KFC also ran a small restaurant opposite the State Theatre from 1980-1998 but this was closed due to lack of profitability.
The Republic Bar, one of the many pubs in the suburb, was the first pub in Tasmania to voluntarily go “smoke-free”. Many other venues have since followed their lead, and the state government has since implemented smoke-free laws for all pubs and clubs, which came into effect on 1 January 2006.
Two colleges are located in the area – Elizabeth College, one of Hobart’s four public secondary colleges, and The Friends’ School, a private school for years K-12. North Hobart was also home of the former Hobart High School – one of the first schools in the city. The building has been preserved and used by many educational establishments over the years, and is now a funeral parlour.
