Auction Wrap – 29 June
The weekend of 29 June was crammed full of auctions, I had a total of five, including one on the Sunday. On what was a very cold and uninviting day we still had plenty of people venture out to be amongst the property action. There were again good numbers at auctions, with many people participating, resulting in big numbers under the hammer.
The REIV recorded a clearance rate of 73 per cent with Fletchers performing above industry average achieving a clearance rate of 80 per cent.
A great sale was the classic four bedroom plus study home at 12 Highview Road in Balwyn North. Tasteful updates to this home over the years have resulted in a warm and welcoming residence that is ready to move straight into and enjoy. With room for a growing family, a rear garden that presents a paved alfresco area and undercover terrace with a spa, this home has it all! Gail Logan and I were pleased- as were our vendors with the eventual selling price of $1,108,000!
The sun-filled period timber home at 19 Loudon Road in Burwood was another great sale for the day. The three bedroom home offers the opportunity to renovate, extend or build new (STCA) and four bidders battled for this property which sold for $945,000 an impressive $75,000 over reserve.
Another pleasing sale for the day was the three bedroom, single level town residence at 2/57 Thea Grove in Doncaster East which sold for $660,000.
The Sunday auction at 43 Wattle Vallet Road in Mitcham was also a great success! Six bidders competed for the property which eventually sold for $639,500.
It was a successful weekend all round, I achieved a 100 per cent clearance selling all the properties I had scheduled for auction.
