There was a surprising turn in Victoria’s property market in October. While Melbourne usually steals the show, this time around, many of the top sales were found in the peaceful spots outside the bustling capital. It seems buyers were on the hunt for a slice of tranquility, away from the city buzz.
While housing values in regional Victoria took a slight dip due to increased property availability and less demand, October saw some remarkable properties finding new owners, all thanks to the sharp skills of real estate agents. Their knack for spotting the unique appeal of these properties and connecting them with the right buyers led to some standout sales amidst a slow market.
