Christmas is just around the corner, and the end of the year is not too far off either, and as the excited buzz of the holidays fill the air, it is time to reflect on the year that was for the property market.
There is no doubt in anyone’s mind that this was an unusual year in the housing market, but nothing could stop the record-breaking sales and influx of beautiful listings that made their way onto Allhomes.
So, without further ado, here are the top 10 most-viewed listings from Allhomes this year.
Topping the list as the most viewed property on Allhomes is 9 Northcote Crescent in Deakin. Located just across the road from the home that broke Canberra’s price record this year, this property matches the calibre exactly, and will be a good one to watch.
