Bailey Smith Explores Perth Real Estate Amidst Off-Field Controversies
Geelong superstar Bailey Smith has been making waves in Perth, Western Australia, exploring real estate sales options and causing a stir both on and off the field.
Smith, who joined Geelong from the GWS Giants in 2022, has quickly become a key player for the team. His move to Geelong helped the Cats reach the 2025 AFL Grand Final, although they ultimately lost to the Brisbane Lions. Off the field, Smith has been exploring the Perth property market, enquiring about house prices in the posh beachside suburb of Cottesloe.
During his recent visit to Perth for a speaking arrangement as part of 'The Bailey Smith Experience - LIVE in Perth!', Smith's off-field behaviour drew attention. He was caught on camera directing abusive language at a photographer and making inappropriate gestures during matches. This is not the first time Smith has faced criticism for his actions. In 2025, he was issued a formal warning by the AFL for insensitive social media posts.
Smith's real estate interests in Perth remain unclear, as there's no public information about the name of the company he used to purchase his residence in Western Australia. Prior to his move to Geelong, Smith owned a $4 million home on the Surf Coast hinterland near Torquay. Despite his off-field controversies, Smith's on-field prowess continues to attract media attention and has been a significant factor in Geelong's recent success.
