The project, in one screen

Alt North

Altona North, Victoria

Altona North sits in Melbourne's Inner West, about 10km from the CBD. It is an established suburb, not a greenfield estate: the shops, the schools and the train line are already there, and Alt North is being built inside one of the few master-planned precincts of its size anywhere in Melbourne's inner suburbs.

We researched the suburb before we looked at the project. Altona North has a published suburb report on this site, scored on 30 public measures across supply, population, housing, employment, resources and education, and the project itself has been through the 60 data point review process. The score you are downloading is the result.

Sixty brand new three-bedroom townhouses, from $850,000, with the precinct's new town centre, parks and streets being delivered around them. Few projects in the inner suburbs can offer new build depreciation, new build tax treatment and an established location at the same time. This one does.

Why Altona North

A new precinct, inside an established suburb. That almost never happens.

Most new precincts are built on the city fringe. Alt North sits inside the Altona North Comprehensive Development Plan: 66 hectares of former industrial land 10km from the CBD, gazetted in 2018, with a new town centre, parks and streets funded as part of the plan.

New amenity, inside a suburb where the schools, shops and freeway are already there. That is the combination a tenant pays for and an investor rarely gets at a new-build price.

Questions we get from interstate

Before you ask for the score

Why would I buy in a city I cannot drive past on the weekend?

Because the property is an investment, not a home, and it is usually assessed on rental demand, supply, holding cost and tax treatment rather than proximity to you. Our Melbourne team does the site visits and inspections and reports back with photos and video, and a local property manager handles the tenancy. Many of our clients never see the property in person before settlement.

Is $850,000 confirmed, and what does it buy?

The release price for a three-bedroom townhouse is $850,000 at the time of writing. We treat it as a from price, not a median, and we say so on the chart. Floor plans, inclusions and the exact lots available at that price are in the score and are confirmed in writing before you commit to anything.

What happens after I download the score?

You get the PDF by email, followed by a short series of emails over about four weeks that walk through the research behind it. Nobody calls you unless you ask. If you want to talk it through, you can book a discovery session with Cam or Adam from any of those emails or from this page.

Does Oli Property get paid by the developer?

Oli Property is paid a commission by the vendor when a client buys, and you pay nothing upfront for the research, the score or the discovery session. We publish the full score because our research team signs off on every project before it goes in front of a client, and the score is their work, not a sales document.

Why Oli Property

Research first. Property second.

Oli Property is part of the Oliver Hume Property Group, which has sold Australian residential property since 1954 and helped over 290,000 Australians buy and invest in new property.

Our research, led by Chief Economist Matt Bell, covers 4,800 suburbs and is relied on by government and ASX 200 companies. Every property we put in front of a client has been through our 60 data point review process first.

We have no reason to push you toward one outcome over another, which is why we run the numbers against our 60 data point review process, across 4,800 suburbs. If this project does not suit your position, we will tell you, and we will tell you why.
