Collingwood Heights ^{WA 6330}

Collingwood Heights's house market is moving higher: the median sale price reached $680,000, roughly 18% above where it sat a year earlier. That said, only eight sales settled in the quarter, so the median is a noisy signal — treat it as a direction rather than a level.

Houses in Collingwood Heights are currently listed at around $704,000 on average. Based on 4 houses listed in the past six months.

4 of the suburb's 254 dwellings (1.6%) were listed for sale in the last 6 months.

Cap is $800,000 SOUTH of the 26th parallel (which includes all of metropolitan Perth) and $1,000,000 NORTH of it. We store the southern figure because that is where almost every buyer is; the northern cap is higher, so the stored value never overstates eligibility. The southern cap rose from $750,000 on 7 May 2026 in the 2026-27 Housing Taxation Package. The same package moved the first home owner RATE OF DUTY thresholds, which is a different scheme and lives in the web repo's app/stamp_duty.py.
