James Market Insight
Brighton: 10 Kent Avenue: Nick Johnstone of JP Dixon. Bought afterwards for over $2,100,000; a 16% increase on last year. But for some sellers the 2010 jig maybe up. Next week looming as a real test - are we turning a corner or are we as buyers dreaming?

James Market Insight
Toorak: 140 Kooyong Road - Bought $4,040,000 - Bidderman 2. Although this went better than some thought it would, an overall toughish day for Iain Carmichael and an even tougher day for many slightly surprised auctioneers across Melbourne who were performing to less enthusiastic bidders than a fortnight ago.

Market analysis of Stonnington area
Toorak: 7 Teringa Place: Bought for $4,105,000. Bidderman 6 -Wow. John Bongiorno back from holidays and applying THE LOOK as strong as ever.
Slower in South Yarra and Toorak
March 20th 2010
If the vendor and/or the vendor's agent get a touch  aggressive concerning the price of a property in this market, the property is more likely to be passed in - and the only way to sell it is to meet the market. Andrew McCann of Ben Mac stills believes there is plenty of demand out there but some vendors have not taken their rose coloured glasses off and he even suggests that some (other) agents may be over promising on prices. Today in Toorak, South Yarra, Kooyong and Malvern we attended 9 auctions. At 5:30 pm,  the results were seven pass- ins while two, 7 Teringa Place, Toorak (James Redfern Marshall White)  and 16 Belson St Malvern East ( both proxies for land value) sold well.  This ratio is a bit different to the REIV numbers where they report 4 pass- ins from 18 auctions. Activity over the next week especially at the weekend will give a better idea of where the market is heading for the first half or the year. The Belson Street auction (Ian McLennan and Danielle Waterton of Benmac) was interesting with 6 bidders making close to 100 bids for an ungraded property  on the Gascoigne Estate. The activity was increased by the presence of what appeared to be a couple of developers. If we fully discount any value for the house  then the land was priced at  approx $2650 psm- about what we would expect for this area. Similarly Teringa Place could also be viewed as a proxy for...

Explanations & Disclaimers
Bought* - Indicates property has been sold. We are a rating company for buyers only, and we use the word bought instead of sold. We do not buy all the properties listed on this website so we often rely on an advertised price or the selling agent to indicate bought price and occasionally the result may be inaccurate.
