Bexleys Real Estate licensed agent Ray Jennings said Wembley was being recognised as a suburb offering good value for money, a great location with superb facilities, its family friendly lifestyle and good growth opportunities.
“Young families are very strong in the market place because of the sought-after schooling,” he said.

READ NOWMr Jennings said there was very strong demand in the area for homes with some land.
“This includes strata lots of villas/townhouses, houses to be demolished or renovated, or recently built homes,” he said.
“There is an oversupply of units, which is reflected in their slow sales.”
Mr Jennings said it was possible, but rare, to find a strata home priced around $700,000, but most properties fell into the $850,000 – $1.5 million price range.
“Properties priced well will sell very quickly within the first couple of weeks (and some before they get to market) with most selling in four to six weeks,” he said. n
