Property market overview for this Victorian suburb.
This market is the suburb as the publisher names and groups it in its own release. The boundary is the publisher’s naming, not a boundary APRIQ drew and not an ABS or postal polygon.
Completions in the March quarter 2026 were equivalent to 91% of commencements, for Victoria. These figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.
Achieved rents moved +2.3% over the year, against +4.6% for the middle suburb in Victoria.
These signals are shown separately so you can see what is driving the market. Explore them under Demand & supply below.
At $440 a week, Wendouree-Alfredton is higher than 8% of the 146 VIC suburbs we hold.
Rents there are up 2.3% over the past year, slower than the typical VIC suburb (up 4.5%).
Based on 1,356 new leases, which is a large enough sample to be steady quarter to quarter.
In September quarter 2025, the median weekly rent rose 2.3% on the quarter before, from $430 to $440. Across the 102 quarterly changes held here, 30 were larger. The newest figure Victoria has published is September quarter 2025 — its publisher releases on a slower cycle than the other states, which is a fact about the publisher, not about this page's freshness.

Moderate
How much housing is being finished, against how much is being started.
| Dwellings completed, Victoria | 12,220 | March quarter 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Dwellings started, Victoria | 13,437 | March quarter 2026 |
| Completions as a share of commencements | 91% | March quarter 2026 |
Strong at or above 95% of commencements, weak below 80%, moderate in between — completions in the quarter compared with commencements in the same quarter, both stated beside this rule. These figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.
Low
How fast achieved rents are rising, against the rest of the state.
| Rent change over a year, Wendouree-Alfredton | +2.3% | the twelve months to September 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Rent change over a year, the middle suburb in Victoria | +4.6% | the twelve months to September 2025 |
High when rents rose at least one percentage point faster than the state, low when at least a point slower, moderate in between. Compared against the state rather than the nation because each bond authority defines its own series: changes compare, levels do not.
Not enough evidence
How much of this market's picture was measured at this market's own geography.

A sale-price series APRIQ can publish is not currently available for this market. Current rent, demand and supply data remain available on this page.
Rising more slowly than the middle of Victoria
How rents here moved over a year, against the typical suburb in Victoria.
| Rent change over a year here | +2.3% | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
|---|---|---|
| The middle suburb in Victoria | +4.6% | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
| Difference | −2.3 percentage points | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
| Markets in the comparison | 146 | the twelve months to September 2025 against a year earlier |
The difference between this market’s one-year rent change and the middle change across every suburb the same publisher reports, in percentage points: 3 or more above is well above, 1 above is above, within 1 either way is in line. Changes are compared within one state because each bond authority defines its own series — movement may be compared between them, the rent itself may not.
Moving annual median, being the median across every lease signed in the preceding twelve months, which is smoother than a quarterly figure and lags one. Every point is a figure the publisher published; nothing between them is filled in.

Population data on suburb pages uses the ABS statistical area containing the suburb. The market card names that wider area; open Data & method for the geography and source.
Not enough evidence
How fast the population here is changing, against how fast Australia is changing.
No population estimate is published for this market at a geography the ABS uses.
The 2021 Census household tables carry no figures for this exact area, and no containing council page exists to borrow from — so there is nothing here rather than a number measured for somewhere else.
Dwelling approvals are published by council area, not by suburb, and an approval is counted for the boundary that granted it — so none are shown here rather than another area’s.
Not enough evidence
How many dwellings this market approved over twelve months for every thousand residents, against the national rate. Approvals are permission to build, not completed dwellings.
Dwelling approvals are published by council area, and this market is not one.
No APRIQ forward rent forecast is published for Wendouree-Alfredton yet. The forecasting model remains in historical backtesting.
The method’s public record so far, across every market at once and clearly a backtest, not a prediction: at 1 quarter ahead, 83.8% of 10,476 graded backtests landed inside their ranges, at a median width of ±7.9%.
See the full historical record on the forecast scorecard. Backtest results describe historical model performance, not a prediction for this market.

Strong
How many observations sit behind the current figure on this page.
| New leases behind the current figure | 1,356 | the twelve months to September 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Quarters of history | 103 | to the twelve months to September 2025 |
| How current | 3 quarters behind the newest any state has published | the twelve months to September 2025 |
| Origin | As the publisher published it | the twelve months to September 2025 |
| Knowability | Dated by the end of its reference period, because no release date is recorded | the twelve months to September 2025 |
Strong needs 200 or more new leases behind the current figure; moderate needs 50. Fewer than that reads as thin: one unusual property can move the figure. A withheld count cannot earn better than thin, because a suppressed number is unknown rather than small. How current the figure is, is a separate fact stated as dates beside this reading, never folded into this word.
Which period the current rent figure describes, how it sits against the newest quarter published anywhere, and whose clock dated it — as dates, because a graded word would hide exactly the part worth checking.
| Describes | the twelve months to September 2025 |

| Standing | This sits 3 quarters behind the newest any state has published — a fact about the publisher’s release cycle, not about this market. |
