What is the median house price in Como?

The median house price in Como sits around $1.25M as at 2026. South-of-river family market, mix of 1960s family + 2000s apartment. Lender appetite at this price point is broad and competitive, but the right lender depends on whether the property is established, a knock-down-rebuild, or apartment stock, and on your borrower profile.

Do I need to visit the Osborne Park office to use a Como broker?

No. Most Como clients run the first conversation by phone or Zoom, then visit our Osborne Park office once to sign documents. Some prefer to come in for every meeting. Both work. We are at 22 Hasler Road, Osborne Park WA 6017, open 8:30am to 5:00pm weekdays and by appointment on Saturday.

What does a mortgage broker cost in Como?

Nothing, in almost every case. The lender pays Central Lending Solutions a commission at settlement, around 0.65 percent of the loan amount plus a small ongoing trail. The Best Interests Duty under the National Credit Act requires us to recommend the loan that is in your interest, not the one that pays the highest commission. We are audited on it.

Local context

Why Como is two markets in one postcode.

The Como market splits along the Canning Highway. South of the highway is dominated by family-scale 1960s and 1970s houses with renovation potential, similar in profile to Wembley. North of the highway, closer to the river, the stock is denser and pricier, with riverside character homes, premium townhouses and apartments. Lender appetite handles both, but the loan structure is different. Family home upgraders run offset and redraw. Riverfront character buyers need upfront valuations because of view and heritage overlay quirks. Apartment buyers need lender policy checked against the specific building.

Our job is to know which of those three you are, before we shortlist a lender.

How we help

How a mortgage broker helps a Como buyer.

For Como family upgraders, the work is the standard South Perth district playbook: offset structure on the new loan, bridging from the previous home, and a timing plan around school start dates. For riverside character buyers, we add the upfront valuation pass, the same way we handle character homes in Nedlands and Subiaco. For apartment buyers along Canning Highway, the binding constraint is whether the lender will lend on the specific building at all. Some lenders blacklist Como towers built before 2000. Others have no issue. Knowing this before the contract signs prevents a late-stage decline.
