THE YEAR OF MOMENTUM & MILESTONES
Yearly Property Report:
January - December 2025
Brought to you by your suburb’s best-selling agent, Matthew Filip


Welcome to my 2025 Mount Sheridan Market Report. Inside this booklet, I capture the best moments of the year including the latest sales statistics, strong buyer activity, massive market maturity, and record-breaking results that shaped what was a very successful and fast-paced year for Mount Sheridan. With buyer demand remaining very competitive and property prices soaring to new heights, the big question is — could your property be next?
It’s no secret that the market movement in Mount Sheridan experienced exceptional growth.
Sellers were celebrating while buyers were left with less opportunity and more intense competition. Hesitation
ended up costing more than negotiation as residential values rose remarkably. Around 200 properties were sold throughout the year and the average days on market was seriously sliced.
For myself, I am very proud and humble to have been responsible for around 104 sales in 2025 with my average days on market totalling just 7 days until sold. Boasting significant Southside market share and over 11 years of experience in real estate, no one understands the Mount Sheridan market quite like I do.
The numbers speak for themselves. The median house value surged by an impressive 17.3% in just 12 months, bringing the median price to $750,329.





This marks the third consecutive year of double-digit growth. What will 2026 bring? Will we see another year of strong growth? Only time will tell.
At the Twomey Schriber Property Group End-of-Year Awards, I was honoured to receive two major accolades: Highest Selling Million Dollar Agent achieving $1.5 - $2million in sales commission, and the Lifetime Membership Award for over 10 years of service at Twomey Schriber (pictured).
I am extremely grateful for the continued support of my clients and sincerely appreciate everyone who has been part of this journey — my team, our principals, and, of course, my wonderful family. I am proud of what we achieved in 2025 and am excited for what 2026 will bring.
If you’re considering selling, upgrading, buying, or investing, this report will provide valuable insight into the strength of the Mount Sheridan market — and why now may be your time to make a move with Matthew Filip.
