    Seeing more investors sell in Hobart. Two of the four listings in our street are tenanted.

    Ballarat East: older weatherboards needing work are the ones getting crowds. Renovated ones sit longer.

  3. Marco D. ·

    Same in Marrickville. Original condition homes bring the builders and renovators out.

    Thanks Sarah, the household section was worth the read.

    Ipswich update: rents flattening a little, and vacancy creeping up from very low levels.

  7. Daniel K. ·

    Rockingham had a unit sell in 9 days with no price on it. Agents are testing the market.

  8. Chloe R. ·

    Price guides are getting more realistic in Newcastle. Fewer underquoting grumbles at the opens.

  9. James O. ·

    Any Adelaide people seeing interstate investors drop off? Opens feel more local lately.

  10. Priya S. ·

    Yes, the agent at an Elizabeth open said interstate enquiries have halved since autumn.

  11. Ahmed H. ·

    Since the rate rise, two buyers I know have pulled out of auctions. Their brokers cut their borrowing capacity.

  12. Jess T. ·

    Same here. One couple dropped their budget by about 60k after the reassessment.

  13. Ben C. ·

    That's the real effect of a rate rise. Fewer bidders with less to spend, not empty rooms.

    A Bendigo agent told me investors ask about yields first now, not growth.

    Inner west results this weekend were mixed. Two strong results, three passed in.

  16. Hannah B. ·

    A reminder to keep comments about agents and vendors respectful, and to leave out names and addresses.

  17. Sarah M. ·

    Preston: the two bedroom unit I mentioned finally sold, about 5 percent under the original guide.

  18. Tom W. ·

    Geelong opens were quieter this weekend. Fewer groups than a month ago.

  19. Mei L. ·

    Brisbane's inner north is still strong for houses. Units are flat.

  20. Daniel K. ·

    Perth opens are slowing a little, but stock is still very low.

  21. Chloe R. ·

    Newcastle: more price reductions in the listings this week than I've seen all year.

  22. James O. ·

    Adelaide is holding up best of the places I watch. Low stock is doing the work.

  23. Priya S. ·

    Parramatta: two investor units listed in my building this week.

  24. Ahmed H. ·

    Blacktown auction this morning: one bidder, passed in, sold after negotiation.

  25. Jess T. ·

    Canberra: a quiet Saturday, but the good houses still sold. Plenty of buyers waiting for the right one.
