At 6pm Saturday the James Clearance Rate on the 22 $M+ Auctions we covered was 59%. Our Demand Indicator Bidderman was 2.2.  Hmmm - an interesting increase but it was off a very low turnover. Today’s... Show Full Story

Market analysis of Port Phillip area
St Kilda 45 Havelock: Robert Harvey pleading - but to no avail. Passed In bidderless for $880,000
10 sales over $1 million this week - it's a lot less than May, but still some action
July 24th 2010
From Port Melbourne to St Kilda things are very much normal for this time of the year. Something - but not much - is happening. These are Bayside suburbs and sales here are very seasonally orientated. Of the five auctions we covered this week, three passed in, one sold under the hammer and one after auction. Bidderman was just over 1 but that's not a hugely meaningful figure this week because, as Michael Szulc of Cayzers puts it, one week we are all chocolates and sell everything, the next week it's all boiled lollies and lots of pass-ins. On such low numbers it all depends on the stock quality. There were ten reported residential sales over $1 million this week compared to 25 in the corresponding week in May - or about 40% of the activity now compared to May.

A quiet street, a quiet crowd and silence as Mr Cayzer tried to encourage some interest from the small gathering. Despite his best efforts the property was passed in with no bids and the observers walked away. Quiet vibe... Read the full report

A gloomy day, but auctioneer Damian O'Sullivan attempted to lighten the mood with a bit of humour. The crowd remained silent however, despite the tales of missed opportunities. The property was passed in with some obviou... Read the full report

Explanations & Disclaimers
Bought* - Indicates property has been bought. We are a buyer rating company and a buyer advocate company only, and we use the word bought instead of sold to give the website a buyer flavour. We do not buy all the properties listed on this website, in fact we buy around 80 per year in the $1M-$5M range, therefore we often rely on an advertised price or the selling agent to indicate the bought price and occasionally the result may be inaccurate.
