By Matt Hurlston

Vendors looking to sell their Carnegie real estate should take note of the latest release from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV), which highlighted the strength of family buyers in the Melbourne market. 

REIV chief executive officer Enzo Raimondo said demand for larger homes has grown consistently over the last year, with four-bedroom properties in Inner Melbourne seeing their median price increase by 3.9 per cent over this period up to $1,455,000. 

Moving further out of the inner suburbs, the median price for four-bedroom houses grew to $827,500 over the last year – rising by a huge 4.1 per cent. Three-bedroom homes in the same middle suburbs also saw their prices increase by 4.2 per cent, offering some insight into the rising need for more space as families begin to prosper and grow.
