Perth, WA - 29 September, 2025 - The official opening of the Thornlie–Cockburn rail link on 9 June 2025 is reshaping property demand in Perth’s southern corridor, with Kwinana emerging as a key beneficiary.

Improved transport connectivity is strengthening buyer interest in the suburb, boosting demand for houses for sale in Kwinana.

Urban Habitat Real Estate (UHRE), a women-led boutique agency based in Kwinana, has already seen a marked uplift in enquiries since the line commenced operations. Managing Director and Property Consultant, Jade Shani, said the infrastructure milestone will accelerate Kwinana’s growth trajectory:

“Transport has always been a major driver of property decisions. The Thornlie–Cockburn link reduces travel times and increases accessibility, making Kwinana even more appealing to buyers seeking affordable homes within reach of Perth’s employment and lifestyle centres. Sellers are now positioned to achieve stronger results in this rising market.”

The new rail connection links Thornlie to Cockburn Central with stops at Nicholson Road and Ranford Road stations, creating faster and more convenient access for commuters. Industry analysts note that suburbs with upgraded transport infrastructure typically record sharper value increases, reinforcing the timing advantage for Kwinana homeowners considering a sale.

UHRE highlights that the dual impact of recent price growth and new infrastructure places urgency on both buyers and sellers. Buyers are encouraged to secure opportunities early before heightened demand translates to further price escalation. Sellers, meanwhile, are in a prime position to capture strong returns on their properties.

As the trusted local property matchmakers, UHRE continues to provide tailored support, transparent service, and deep market expertise to Kwinana residents navigating these shifts.
