Kensington Gardens Real Estate Agent

Local Agents. Honest Appraisals.

Sellers in Kensington Gardens usually meet a mixed crowd of buyers. Rentals made up 30.2% of Kensington Gardens homes at the 2021 Census, which makes investors a real part of the market, and owner-occupiers held most of the rest, 39.8% of homes outright and 27.2% with a mortgage. Units, townhouses and family houses all change hands here, and each attracts its own buyer.

Axiom Realty sells and manages property in Adelaide’s east. Our property managers have leased homes in Kensington Park, Magill and Tranmere, which keeps us in touch with the investors who buy in this pocket of the City of Burnside.

About Selling With Axiom

The Kensington Gardens Market

What draws buyers here

Kensington Gardens took its name around 1910, after Kensington Gardens in London. Its centrepiece is Kensington Wama, or Kensington Gardens Reserve, the largest recreational area in the City of Burnside, with the Waite, Parkinson and Ford Ovals, an adventure playground on West Terrace and a creek-side wetland that reopened in January 2022.

The housing is a genuine mix. Kensington Gardens flats and apartments were 32.9% of homes at the 2021 Census, townhouses and semi-detached homes 20.9% and separate houses 46.0%. A downsizer considering a two-bedroom unit and a family wanting a house near the ovals look for different things, so your campaign is shaped around your property. To learn what yours could fetch, ask for a free appraisal.

How We Sell in Kensington Gardens

Units, townhouses and houses

Unit buyers dig into the strata records, the levies and the condition of the common areas, so we pull that paperwork together early. A house is judged from the kerb first. We’ll suggest what to tidy or fix and put you in touch with reliable tradespeople.

When the property is ready, we list it on Domain and realestate.com.au and run the campaign over two to three weeks. Our own team designs and targets the social advertising that runs at the same time, and we email the home to a database holding more than 10,000 buyers and investors.

On a bigger block, a builder might see more potential than a family does. What can be built is decided by the zone under the Planning and Design Code, and we check it for your address before choosing who the marketing should target.

Sales advice backed by local leasing

We also sell in Kensington Park, Magill, Tranmere, Leabrook and Rosslyn Park. Many investors on our books are landlords whose homes we already manage, and before they bid they want a believable rent figure, which our leasing work lets us give them.

Common Kensington Gardens Real Estate Agent FAQs

Have a Question?

Investors and smaller households, mostly. One-person households were 36.6% of the suburb’s total at the 2021 Census, and couples without children made up 44.6% of Kensington Gardens families. Owner-occupiers find the listing on the portals, and investors hear about it through our database.

Expect questions on levies, the sinking fund, any planned works and the state of shared areas. Having the strata records on hand before launch keeps things moving once an offer arrives.

Buyers often ask about it. Kensington Wama has ovals, playgrounds and a wetland boardwalk, and when your home is close we make the walk to it part of the listing.

We compare it with recent sales of similar homes nearby and show you those sales at an appraisal held at the property, free and with no obligation. Units are measured against units, and houses against houses.

Axiom Realty charges a percentage commission plus a marketing budget. Both are set out in the sales agency agreement before your property goes to market, so you know the full cost before you commit.

Our selling process...

Accurate Appraisal

Realistic appraisals are key to the sales process – Axiom Realty will never exaggerate your home’s market value just to win your business.

Preparation

Often, minor touch ups prior to listing a property can increase final sale price. We suggest changes and refer reliable trades people so that your home enters the market looking its best.

Marketing your property

We have a heavy focus on technology and digital marketing channels to target potential buyers directly. By analysing your property’s suburb, we target buyers with even greater precision thereby achieving impressive results at lower cost.

Axiom Boasts an in-house social media specialist to ensure your home gains maximum exposure to potential buyers.

Expert Negotiation

Skilled negotiation has often increased the sale (and rental) price of our listings significantly. This alone can increase your sales price by thousands or allow for more favourable sale conditions (eg. no finance, higher deposit).
