Weekly Auction & Sales Results, Market Overview
Sunday 6 December 2009
The residential auction market improved slightly this weekend with the clearance rate reaching 82 per cent compared to 78 per cent last weekend.
The interest rate rise during the week appears to have had little effect on the demand at auctions. This is not a surprise as anyone buying or selling today will have either built the increase into their expectations or be committed to the process.
There were 905 auctions reported to the REIV this weekend of which a total of 736 sold and 167 were passed in, 97 of those on a vendors bid.
This weekend’s result will provide vendors over the next two weekends with a high degree of confidence.
There is expected to be a new record number of auctions on next weekend with just under 1100 scheduled followed by just under 600 the weekend before Christmas.
