Subiaco Property Update: Why apartments are leading the way

Written by Cedar Woods | Aug 15, 2025 8:29:05 AM


Once seen as a niche choice, apartment living is fast becoming the leading option for many Perth buyers. Lifestyle-focused first home buyers, downsizers, and savvy investors are recognising the benefits of apartments – from affordability and low-maintenance living to prime locations that traditional houses can’t match.

Recent property data from Cotality confirms the shift: Perth units are outperforming houses, achieving 10.4% annual growth to July 2025 compared to 6% for houses. Buyers are snapping up the unbeatable value, lock-and-leave convenience, and vibrant lifestyles that units have to offer - and Subiaco is leading the way.

 

Why Subiaco?

  • Strong growth: apartment values rose 13.5% in the past year, compared to just 7.8% for traditional houses
  • Better returns: apartments delivering higher rental yields than houses
  • Sought-after location: in demand suburb offering strong long-term growth potential
  • Affordable entry price: get into the Subiaco property market for well below the median house price of $1.8M

 

With its leafy streets, walkable lifestyle, and thriving café and dining scene, Subiaco blends the best of city convenience and community charm. Whether you’re an investor chasing growth or a homeowner wanting a lively, connected neighbourhood, Subiaco is a suburb that ticks all the boxes.
