REAStats Launches as Australia's Dedicated Real Estate & Property Market Intelligence Platform

Sydney, Australia — 7 April 2026

Selling a home means making two of the biggest decisions most people ever make — which agent to trust and how to read your local market — usually with very little independent information to go on. REAStats launches today to fix that: a free platform giving Australian sellers, buyers, and investors clear, independent guidance on choosing an agent, understanding how agencies work, and interpreting suburb and market data.

REAStats doesn't sell leads or run sponsored rankings. It's built to give vendors the same understanding of the process — and the same market data — that professionals have always taken for granted.

Independent Guidance on Choosing an Agent and Agency

Rather than telling you which agent to pick, REAStats teaches you how to evaluate one. The platform breaks down the decisions that actually matter:

• Franchise vs independent agencies — the real trade-offs between national brands (Ray White, McGrath, LJ Hooker, Harcourts, Belle Property, Barry Plant) and independent agencies, and which suits different property types and markets.
• How agencies dominate different states — a state-by-state view of which networks have the largest footprint and which notable independents compete with them, with the important caveat that national dominance rarely translates to any specific suburb.
• The questions to ask every agency — with examples of good answers and red flags, so you can interview agents with confidence instead of taking a listing pitch at face value.
• Agreement types explained — sole, exclusive, open, and conjunctional agency agreements, what each means for your control and the agent's motivation, and how to think about contract length.

The throughline: the individual agent matters more than the brand, and the two biggest levers a vendor controls are agency choice and contract terms. None of this guidance is sponsored or affiliate content.

Suburb & Capital-City Market Data

REAStats tracks property market data across Australian suburbs and all eight capital cities — median house and unit prices, annual capital growth, rental yields, vacancy rates, days on market, and auction clearance rates. Search by suburb or postcode, or filter by state to compare like-for-like markets.

Each suburb page includes a full statistical snapshot, comparable-suburb recommendations, recent local context, and detailed market commentary. Data is drawn from public property registers, ABS Census releases, Domain research reports, and licensed industry feeds, and refreshed on a rolling basis. As REAStats notes throughout, these figures are indicative estimates for general guidance — for verified data, buyers are pointed to sources like CoreLogic, Domain, or a licensed agent.

Free Property Calculators

REAStats includes free calculators covering the numbers that matter most when buying, selling, or holding property: stamp duty across every state and territory, Lender's Mortgage Insurance, gross and net rental yield, indicative borrowing power, capital gains tax on investment sales, and a days-on-market cost tool. Each uses the same published rate schedules, APRA serviceability buffers, and ATO rules that lenders, conveyancers, and tax agents work from — so the outputs are a reliable starting point for budgeting and negotiation.

A Research-Grade Reference

Beyond the tools, REAStats publishes an encyclopedia and comparison guides covering the whole property journey — the buying and selling process, finance and lending, conveyancing and settlement, and how to interpret market statistics — written specifically for Australian conditions, from state-by-state stamp duty to underquoting law and first-home-buyer schemes. Daily property intelligence articles add current market context, every figure anchored to a source.

Why REAStats Was Built

"Australian property sellers often make the most significant financial decision of their lives with very little independent information to work from," said a REAStats spokesperson. "REAStats exists to change that — giving vendors clear guidance on how agencies work, the right questions to ask, and the market data to read their suburb, all in one free place, with nothing sponsored."

Part of a Growing Network
