Melbourne records new record median house price - $520,000

The REIV September Property Update reveals that the median price of a house has increased by 6.4 per cent since August to $520,000.

REIV CEO Enzo Raimondo said that this was the highest increase the Institute had ever recorded and was a clear sign that the residential property market had recovered from the global financial crisis.
