Why Richmond runs above Melbourne model baseline
Richmond (Inner East) is modelled at ~8% above the Melbourne model baseline. Premium suburbs typically attract tradies who service higher-value properties, charge for travel time from their depots, and price in the expectation of more demanding clients. That's not always wrong — but it's worth getting 2–3 quotes before assuming the local rate is the only rate.
