Sorrento has long been one of Perth’s most sought-after coastal suburbs, and it’s easy to see why.
With beautiful beaches, strong community spirit, great schools and a relaxed coastal lifestyle, Sorrento continues to attract a wide range of buyers, from growing families to downsizers and those chasing that classic Perth beachside lifestyle.
For Ray White Keevers Group, Sorrento is a market we know exceptionally well. Director Ben Keevers lives locally and has been awarded the Rate My Agent No.1 Agent in Sorrento for eight consecutive years, reflecting both his results and the feedback of local clients.
With strong ties to the community and a team that lives and works along Perth’s northern coast, we have a genuine understanding of what buyers are looking for and how the market is evolving.

Over the past few years, demand for homes in Sorrento has continued to grow. Much of this interest comes from local families looking to upgrade within the suburb, buyers relocating from nearby coastal areas, and Perth homeowners searching for a long-term lifestyle location by the coast.

Buyers love homes that blend character with updated kitchens, bathrooms and outdoor entertaining spaces.
Single-level homes for downsizers
Many long-term locals are choosing to remain in Sorrento but move into easier-to-maintain homes.
Homes close to the coast
Properties within walking distance of the beach, parks and cafés consistently attract strong attention.

Many sellers are also surprised to learn how much their property value has grown over the past few years.
