Kensington Real Estate Agent

Local Agents. Honest Appraisals.

Rented homes made up close to half of Kensington at the 2021 Census: 46.7% of occupied dwellings. A Kensington sale usually has to make two cases at once, the rent and yield for an investor, and the character and location for someone who will live there.

Axiom Realty manages rentals in Kensington and Kensington Park, so during your campaign we can give investor buyers a rent estimate drawn from homes we lease ourselves.

About Selling With Axiom

Results, Delivered.

Selling in Kensington

Location, housing and buyers

Kensington is in the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters, beside Norwood and Portrush Road, with Kensington Park and Beulah Park over the council boundary in the City of Burnside. High Street and Regent Street are its main streets, Second Creek runs through Borthwick Park, and the suburb has Marryatville Primary School, Mary MacKillop College and the Norwood Swimming Centre.

Most of the housing is attached. At the 2021 Census, 42.6% of Kensington dwellings were semi-detached, row or townhouses, 27.0% were flats or apartments and 29.9% were separate houses, and many of the older homes are heritage-listed. A restored cottage sells on its period detail and position. An apartment is judged on levies, parking and light. Book an appraisal and we’ll price yours in person, free of charge.

How We Market Kensington Homes

Heritage detail, presentation and the campaign

Buyers of a heritage-listed home, or one in the Historic Area Overlay, want to know early what they can change. Before launch we check the overlays and any listing that apply to your address, so the campaign can answer the question every renovator asks.

In a small home, presentation is about light and space: clearing clutter, repairing period features, and a neat front garden. Our reliable tradespeople can finish that work before the photographer arrives.

Over a two-to-three-week campaign, your listing runs on realestate.com.au and Domain, our in-house team runs targeted social advertising, and we match it to buyers and investors from a database of more than 10,000.

Common Kensington Real Estate Agent FAQs

Have a Question?

Some buyers want a home they can rebuild, and a Local Heritage Place or Historic Area Overlay limits that. Others are looking for exactly the kind of period home the rules protect. We check what applies to your address on the PlanSA Code viewer and explain it in the campaign, so buyers bid knowing the rules.

They’re a large part of the market. At the 2021 Census, 46.7% of Kensington’s homes were rented. We invite investors from our database and our property management clients, and give them a rent estimate based on homes we lease nearby.

That depends on the type of home, its condition, its street and any heritage listing. We appraise in person, free and without obligation, and walk you through the comparable Kensington sales behind our figure.

Marryatville Primary School and Mary MacKillop College are both in Kensington. Families tend to ask about schools early, so we include the nearby options in the listing.

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).
