Real estate agents in Burns Beach
Adam Whitford & Ken Yan
Burns Beach makes a pretty convincing case for coastal living. The beach sits on the doorstep, while parks, walking and cycling paths weave through a suburb largely made up of modern family homes. Burns Beach Primary School is within the estate, with shopping, dining and the wider Joondalup area close by.
That combination has helped Burns Beach develop into one of the more premium residential markets along Perth’s northern coastline. For sellers, the finer details of a home can carry plenty of weight when buyers are comparing properties at this end of the market.
If you’re comparing real estate agents in Burns Beach, Adam Whitford and Ken Yan bring extensive experience across residential sales, negotiation, property development and marketing. Both work independently as agents and also collaborate on selected sales.
Selling property in Burns Beach
Burns Beach has been shaped around the coast, and much of its housing reflects that. Modern two-storey homes, larger family floorplans and outdoor entertaining are common across the suburb. Position can add another dimension, whether that means park frontage, an ocean outlook or being able to reach the foreshore on foot.
The market sits firmly above the Perth median. As of September 2026, REIWA records a median Burns Beach house price of $1.7 million, with four-bedroom homes sitting around $1.74 million.
At those prices, buyers are likely to look closely at the whole package. Build quality, floorplan, finishes, upgrades, block size and location within Burns Beach can all influence how one property compares with the next.
Adam and Ken have sold Burns Beach properties together, including 2 Piermont Avenue, a four-bedroom home on a 590m² corner block that sold for $1.39 million.
What brings buyers to Burns Beach?
It starts with the Indian Ocean. Burns Beach has direct beach access and a network of paths linking homes with the foreshore, parks and playgrounds. Beachside Park sits right on the ocean, while several other green spaces are spread throughout the estate.
For families, there’s also the convenience of having Burns Beach Primary School within the suburb and a wider selection of schools nearby. Currambine Central, Joondalup City Centre and other shopping and entertainment options are within easy reach.
The housing style itself is part of the draw. Buyers looking in Burns Beach are often comparing relatively modern homes, so the conversation can move quickly beyond basic bedroom and bathroom counts.
A flexible second living area, better outdoor entertaining, extra storage, a larger garage or an outlook across parkland may make one home considerably more appealing than another.
Knowing which features deserve attention helps keep the campaign focused on what buyers are actually getting for their money.
A closer look at the property
Burns Beach homes can come with long feature lists. Adam has a particular interest in property marketing and nearly two decades of experience across Perth real estate. He keeps a close eye on marketing trends and technology, while his knowledge of Perth’s northern coastal corridor helps put individual properties in context.
Ken brings more than 15 years of hands-on experience in buying, selling and property development, supported by qualifications in marketing, management, finance and accounting.
Those careers can be useful in different ways. Adam brings extensive sales, marketing and negotiation experience, while Ken combines property knowledge with a strong grasp of the numbers behind a decision.
The property still leads the campaign. The agent’s job is to work out which parts of it are most likely to carry weight with buyers.
Development potential can change the conversation
Most Burns Beach sellers will be marketing a home rather than a development site, but understanding the land beneath it can still be valuable.
Adam has extensive experience identifying development potential and assessing the highest and best use of property. He has also project-managed development sites and worked with clients looking for opportunities beyond a straightforward residential sale.
Ken has property development experience of his own, along with a finance and accounting background that gives him another lens for assessing property decisions.
Where development potential is genuinely relevant, it can broaden the way a property is considered and marketed.
For a seller, having that knowledge available means fewer assumptions about what the property may offer.
Marketing to a premium buyer
Presentation can leave a lasting impact in buyers’ minds. In Burns Beach, they can be choosing between homes where the standard is already fairly high.
Adam and Ken have marketed properties in the suburb with features ranging from extensive family living and high-end finishes to park frontage and immediate proximity to the ocean.
The value of those features depends on how well they’re communicated. Photography, copy, home opens and buyer follow-up all need to build a clear picture of the property and its place within Burns Beach. The wider Xceed Real Estate team supports the campaign across marketing and administration, while Adam or Ken remains directly involved with the seller.
Experience when negotiations begin
Adam’s negotiation experience is a significant part of his property background.
He is a qualified Openn Negotiation Master and has spent close to two decades negotiating residential property sales. His approach combines a strong understanding of buyer behaviour with open communication throughout the process.
Ken brings a more analytical perspective, backed by his finance and accounting qualifications and years of practical property experience.
Whichever agent leads the campaign, you’ll have an experienced agent working through buyer interest, conditions and offers while keeping you informed as the sale progresses.
For higher-value property, there can be more to consider than the number written at the top of an offer. Finance conditions, settlement timing and the strength of the buyer’s position can all affect the decision.
