5. MARKET OVERVIEW
5.1. KINGSGROVE RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE MARKET
Updated in Jun 25th 2021, the median house price in Kingsgrove records
$1,440,000, and the median house rent is $600 per week. In the past 12 months,
there were 101 houses sold and 140 house listed for rent in Kingsgrove. Houses with
three bedroom was counted for the majority of the houses sold and rented.
As for July 1st 2021, Kingsgrove has 21 properties for sale and 42 properties
available for rent. Based on the evidence, demand for three bedroom houses is fairly
stable in the area.
We have examined recent sales within Kingsgrove over the last 4 months and have
had particular regard to the following sales evidence, which we consider set the
parameters by which the valuer of the subject property may be determined.
In assessing the Market Value of the subject property, we have had consideration to
the following comparable sales located in the immediate and surrounding areas:

three bedroom, one bathroom, open plan

*Advised by agent livable area. As such a similar value in
comparison to this sale is expected for the
subject.
5.3. CURRENT MARKET VALUE
In comparing the subject property against the above sales, it is obvious that there is
a sufficient amount of similar dwellings that sold over the last four months in
Kingsgrove and immediately surrounding areas of 15 Rosemeath Avenue,
Kingsgrove. We have considered on top of the refurbished kitchen, bedrooms,
bathrooms, and living area, as well as additional improvement upon the land, but
also analysed the properties based on location, quality of accommodation, age of the
property in justifying the current market value of the subject property.
The property was listed on the market for 26 days and sold for $1.32 million on
Auction on May 12th 2018.
The sales evidence analysed herein suggests a current market value of above
$1,475,000 however less than $1,600,000. The sale of the subject at $1,485,000 is
noted to be within this range.
This sale price is considered to be within the realms of market value and as such as
been adopted within this assessment as follows:
Ro me Av e $1,485,000
Market Value Adopted Market Value $/m2 Market Value $/m2 Floor Area
Based on 140 house listing from the last 12 month, the trend of 3 bedroom house
rental is stable and strong comparing to rental of 2 or 4 bedroom house in
Kingsgrove. With average rent of Kingsgrove siting at $620 per week, the average
gross rental yield is 2.44%.
In assessing the market rental profile for the subject residence, we have had regard
to the following rental evidence of three to four bedroom houses in the immediate
area.
2.21% $ 1,468,392
2.48% $ 1,472,382
2.69% $ 1,505,102
This capital value is considered to be within the realms of market value and as such
has been adopted within this assessment as follows:
Strengths Weaknesses
• Refurbished interior and fitout • Easement of drainage
• Quite neighborhood with good
privacy
• Quality of construction and floorplan
Opportunities Threats
• Potential to upgrade the driveway to • Uncertain COVID impacts to
provide for greater appeal housing market
• Potential for alternation/extension for • Uncertain bank policies to
larger livable area interest rate
We are of the opinion that the likely selling period is on average to be in the vicinity
of 23 to 32 days. The local housing market has presented a stable demand of similar
properties. Therefore we believe this selling period is considered to be within the
realms of market condition.
This is an estimate of time it might take for the property to sell if it were marketed at
the ascribed market value. Naturally, this is not a guarantee, and the actual time it
may take to sell the subject will be impacted by numerous factors.
The most probable purchaser for the subject would be middle class family or
investors.
