Through March the largest auction markets have seen the clearance rate holding around the mid-to-low 50% range which is lower than the same time last year, but a substantial improvement relative to late 2018.While there has clearly been a seasonal bounce in the clearance rate, auction results are holding reasonably firm on higher volumes. The number of auctions is likely to rise further in the lead up to Easter; if we see the clearance rate continuing to hold around the mid-to-low 50% range it will be a strong sign that the fit between buyer and seller pricing expectations is becoming more balanced.<\/p>\n
There were 2,155 homes taken to auction across the combined capital cities this week, with preliminary results showing a 56.8 per cent success rate. This is the third consecutive week where the preliminary clearance rate has been in the 56 per cent range so it is likely that we will see revision down to the low 50\u2019s as final results are collected which is what we have seen over the last two weeks.<\/p>\n
