* New approvals use the latest rolling 24 months, allocated from the suburb’s dominant SA2 using dwelling-type stock shares and compared with estimated current stock. Townhouses are assessed separately. Approvals are not completions.

Each signal is independently compared with published Australian profiles of the same dwelling type that have that observation. Stock on Market is active REA buy listings divided by the selected dwelling-stock proxy, multiplied by 100. G-NAF is preferred, with an estimated-stock fallback where needed; houses and units are measured independently. Lower percentages receive higher comparison scores, while missing observations remain unscored. The displayed bar compares published profiles of the same dwelling type and remains independent of formal ranking eligibility. This current snapshot can change quickly: it is neither a rental vacancy rate nor a finding of oversupply. For formally ranked profiles, Best Overall separately includes Stock on Market at a 5% weight within its qualifying formal cohort. New approvals remain a separate pipeline screening indicator, not a finding of oversupply.

Read before using the figures

Different datasets have different coverage and update dates.

Price medians, rents, active sale listings, building approvals, Census measures, school context and crime indicators are assembled from separate sources. Stock on Market is a fast-changing share of estimated dwelling stock advertised for sale—not a vacancy rate or proof of oversupply. A ranking score cannot replace comparable-sales analysis, inspection of the local housing stock or professional advice.

Review data sources and methodology

Profile data refreshed 13 August 2026 This profile combines datasets with different publication schedules. Check each metric's period label for its latest available observation. Available observations are shown even when a dwelling type does not meet the confidence rules for a total ranking.
