Spring is off to a strong start and the optimism and excitement in the air is well-founded.
In just the first week of spring, six of our Advisors & Negotiators have successfully aligned the hearts and homes of SEVEN buyers and successfully negotiated over $12 million in property value for our sellers, setting the tone for what promises to be a rewarding spring selling season ahead.
With stock levels across WA at historic lows—REIWA reporting just 2,983 properties for sale at the end of August—demand remains high, and competition is strong. We are achieving particularly outstanding results for well-prepared homes and they are being quickly snapped up with several of our properties selling within the first week with multiple offers. For sellers this spring is an opportunity to kick big goals.
But it’s not just sellers and buyers who are kicking goals this week, Fremantle, our favourite port-city, was crowned Australia’s Top Tourism Town for 2025, recognising its heritage, culture, and coastal lifestyle. People across the country are discovering what we already know, that Fremantle is both a great place to live and also a great place to invest.
At White House, in recent years, we have consistently highlighted Fremantle as an undervalued suburb, and the suburb’s price growth has been quite remarkable: 74.1 percent price growth in the past five years, and 14.6 percent in just the last year. The median price for a three-bedroom house in Fremantle now sits at $1.375 million, with rent for a three-bedroom house at $850 per week, and properties selling in an average of just 13 days.
We are also delighted to highlight that more Fremantle property owners are choosing our White House to represent them than any other agency. This is true not just for Fremantle itself, but we are also the most chosen agency in the surrounding suburbs of East Fremantle, White Gum Valley, North Coogee and Beaconsfield.

The benefit to sellers who choose White House to represent them is clear: our knowledge of the Fremantle and surrounding surburbs’ markets is literally second to none, and we are connecting with more buyers week after week than any other agency. This empowers our team and our sellers with the most up-to-date sales results, market insights and excellent buyers.
As the City of Fremantle celebrates on the national stage, in the AFL, our home team the Fremantle Dockers will be stepping into their elimination final at Optus Stadium this weekend, looking to kick more goals than their counterparts. Our office at 45 Canning Highway will be glowing purple this weekend in a show of support. GO FREO!
Finally, on Sunday Australians will celebrate Father’s Day. We recognise the critical role that fathers, grandfathers and father-figures play in our lives and in society and we thank them for their love and support and wish all fathers, grandfathers and father-figures a fantastic Father’s Day.
