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

Any Adelaide people seeing interstate investors drop off? Opens feel more local lately.
Priya S. · 27 Sep
Yes, the agent at an Elizabeth open said interstate enquiries have halved since autumn.

Since the rate rise, two buyers I know have pulled out of auctions. Their brokers cut their borrowing capacity.
Jess T. · 28 Sep
Same here. One couple dropped their budget by about 60k after the reassessment.
Ben C. · 28 Sep
That's the real effect of a rate rise. Fewer bidders with less to spend, not empty rooms.

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

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

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

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

Newcastle: more price reductions in the listings this week than I've seen all year.
James O. · 2 Oct
Adelaide is holding up best of the places I watch. Low stock is doing the work.
Priya S. · 2 Oct
Parramatta: two investor units listed in my building this week.

Blacktown auction this morning: one bidder, passed in, sold after negotiation.
Jess T. · 3 Oct
Canberra: a quiet Saturday, but the good houses still sold. Plenty of buyers waiting for the right one.
