THE STREET-LEVEL EDGE

The suburb average is hiding the answer.

Two homes in the same suburb, one street apart, can grow very differently. The suburb average blurs them into one number. We forecast the street, not just the suburb. That is where the money actually moves. See the street-level research.

353,728

Streets covered across Australia. Every one gets its own growth outlook, not a borrowed suburb figure.

+7% / yr

Top-ranked streets beat the wider market by about 7% a year (2014-2026). On a typical home that is around $150,000 ahead.

$38B

Extra gains across roughly 99,000 resales on top-picked streets since 2014. Picking the right street pays.

SEE IT

Green streets are forecast to outperform. Red streets to lag.

Open any suburb report and the street price forecast is right there. Every street gets its own 4 year and 8 year outlook, green where we expect it to beat the suburb, red where we expect it to fall behind. You read the kerb before you read the contract.

Street Price Forecasts panel from a Bondi suburb report, showing each street with its own 4 year and 8 year growth forecast
The Street Price Forecasts panel from the Bondi report. Each street carries its own 4 year and 8 year forecast, so two homes a block apart no longer share one fate. Picking the right street has historically added about 6.6% a year on top of the suburb (2012-2025 backtest).
SAME SUBURB, DIFFERENT STREETS

One suburb, two outcomes a block apart.

The strong street and the weak street sit inside the same suburb median. The average cannot tell you which is which. The street forecast can. Here are two suburbs where our signals split the streets in opposite directions.

SuburbCity/SUAStreet signalOutlook vs suburb
NikenbahHervey Bay GreenForecast to beat the suburb by about 4% a year
Tea Tree GullyAdelaide RedForecast to trail the suburb by about 3% a year

Same data, opposite call. The buyer who reads the street, not the suburb, walks in knowing which side of the median they are on.

ASK THE CHATBOT

Which street in Perth?

Ask the chatbot any city and it names the streets, not just the suburb. Try Fremantle in Perth, Bondi in Sydney, or Northcote in Melbourne. It points you to the kerb that is forecast to grow fastest.

Sydney

Ask for the top streets in Bondi and get a ranked list with green signals first.

Perth

Ask which street in Fremantle and the bot names blocks, not postcodes.

Melbourne

Ask for the strong streets in Northcote and compare them side by side.

WHY BELIEVE IT

The street forecast is back-tested against what actually sold.

Homes on the same street move the same direction about 96% of the time, far more than the suburb average. That is the pattern the street forecast rides, and we check every one against later sale prices. The full street research is on the market cohesion page.

96%

Of price moves are explained by street-level patterns, the signal behind every street forecast. Read the paper.

+7% / yr

Top-ranked streets beat the wider market by about 7% a year (2014-2026) in the back-test. See the forecasts.

Pricing a single property is a different job. That one is our valuation, and it lands within 10% of the sale price about 87% of the time on homes under $800,000. Read the research.

Down to the microburb

A suburb is not one market. It is dozens.

Open any suburb report and the map breaks the suburb into microburbs, each one priced on its own. The pale blocks and the dark blocks below sit inside the same postcode.

Map of Bondi broken into microburbs, each coloured by its own median sale price, with neighbouring suburbs shaded at suburb level
Bondi, split into microburbs and coloured by median sale price. The small blocks inside the outlined suburb are microburbs, banded from under $5.89M to $28.9M. The larger flat areas around it are neighbouring suburbs, shaded at suburb level. Toggle a row in the report and the map switches to growth, risk or any other measure.

Two jobs, two tools

A valuation prices a property. A forecast predicts a street or suburb.

They answer different questions, so we keep them separate. One tells you what a home is worth today. The other tells you where a street or suburb is heading.

Valuation, for a property

What this specific home is worth right now. Within 10% of the eventual sale price about 87% of the time, tested on 182,517 homes under $800,000 that sold between 2020 and 2025.

Forecast, for a street or suburb

What investors and agents actually say.

Direct quotes from customers on how they use the platform. Real names, real desks.

Replaces multiple subscriptions

This is what I was trying to do, get to a point where we use one tool rather than four. And that is great.
