There were 888 auction results reported this week, ending the 5th March, approximately double the number compared to this time last year. A total of 683 were sold at auction and 205 were passed in. Data from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria report a clearance rate of 77%.
According to Domain’s auction report for February 2022, Melbourne had the highest number of auction listings for the month since Domain records began. It also reported that clearance rates were slowing as a result of increased volumes and reduced competition.
The report stated that Melbourne’s median auction house price is up 7.5% over the year to $1.21 million but price momentum has slowed and that houses continue to outperform units.
