CoreLogic’s best of the best 2020 report has revealed that the highest median unit value was found in Point Piper, as with 2019.

The report revealed Australia’s $7.2 trillion residential real estate market proved resilient in the face of a global pandemic, leaving an overall positive market outlook for 2021.

Eliza Owen, CoreLogic’s head of research, said the report highlighted the resilience of luxury markets in Australia.

“This is not to say these suburbs have been unaffected by the pandemic; indeed the high end of the Sydney market is generally more volatile to changes in economic conditions. However, this volatility also tends to see a rapid recovery in the wake of lower mortgage rates and an improvement in consumer sentiment.”

All ten of suburbs listed amongst the nation’s best for unit value were located in Sydney, with Point Piper taking the top spot with a median unit value exceeding $2.28 million.

Darling Point took the second spot, with 78 units sold throughout the year and a median value of $1.785 million.

Sydney’s eastern suburbs performed well across the board, with Darling Point, Bellevue Hill and Vaucluse taking the three top spots for highest median house value. Double Bay, Tamarama, Rose Bay and Dover Heights also made the top ten.
