More Information

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.

WHAT IS MY HOUSE PRICE ESTIMATE?

There are several variables that can affect property values in Safety Beach. To accurately estimate the value of your Safety Beach 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.

WHAT ARE THE STEPS TO SELLING MY Safety Beach HOUSE?

There’s a lot to think about when selling your Safety Beach property, and a lot of it happens before signing up with an agent.

Initially, you should look at the Safety Beach property market and see if the conditions are right. Get an idea of how much your property is valued in the present day, starting with an independent property value report. Then you will want to contact and interview multiple agents (ideally around 3) and discuss selling methods, advertising and fees.

Make sure you are sure about selling, and are realistic about your property’s value when talking to agents. A mistake here could cost you. The best way to avoid costly missteps and get a good price is to sign up with a strong local real estate agent that can walk you through the whole selling process in an honest way.

Safety Beach Suburb Overview

Safety Beach is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Its Local Government Area is the Shire of Mornington Peninsula.

Safety Beach occupies slightly less than half the area of land between the foothills of Mount Martha and Arthurs Seat and borders Port Philip Bay to its west.

There is a large inland harbour and residential development in Safety Beach named Martha Cove, named after its location in the cove at the foot of Mount Martha. The project was heavily protested by residents. The project began in 2004, but is experiencing considerable financial difficulties.

Golfers play at the course of the Mount Martha Valley Golf Club on Country Club Drive, or at the Safety Beach Golf Course nearby.

Safety Beach was originally named ‘Shark Bay’, but underwent a name change to attract tourist trade to the peninsula. In 1841, Hugh Jamieson purchased 5,120 acres, or eight square miles, of land from the Crown for ?1 an acre under the terms of the short-lived Special Survey regulations.

The purchase included all of the present suburb of Safety Beach. The area is known as Jamieson’s Special Survey in cadastral surveys.The survey extended east as far as Bulldog Creek Rd.Henry Dunn had leased the Survey from 1846 until 1851 and was succeeded by tenants such as the Griffith, Eaton, Peatey, McLear, Clydesdale, Wilson, Cottier and Gibson families, which were involved with the History of Dromana, and in the case of William Cottier, the establishment of the first of three Rye Hotels, in Dromana. Cottier and John Campbell built a second hotel east of Lyons St, Rye, using the same name and licence, thus bestowing a new name on the limeburning settlement. Edward Louis Tassell leased the northern 1,000 acres for some time near the creek that is named after him.

Big Clarke later owned the survey and his son in law, Bruce received this land as a wedding present. Maria Stenniken, who married Godfrey Burdett Wilson, used to work at Bruce’s house as a servant during the summer. At the eastern end of the Survey, many of the pioneers worked at goldmining for Bernard Eaton.

Safety Beach Post Office opened on 1 October 1953 and closed in 1974.
