Granny flats lead housing searches this spring

The pattern repeats elsewhere. In Perth, “granny flat” ranked second overall, just behind “pool.” Houses account for more than 81% of searches, with the typical three-bedroom house or townhouse at about $850,000, and units averaging closer to $600,000. Searches are concentrated in Cottesloe-Claremont, Fremantle, South Perth, and Kalamunda, areas where block sizes and versatility support separate living quarters.
