CoreLogic Property Market Indicator Summary

All data to week ending 10 December 2017


Auction volumes remain high across the combined capital cities with 3,353 held this week
This week across the combined capital cities, auction volumes remained high with 3,353 homes taken to auction returning a preliminary
clearance rate of 63.1 per cent, increasing from last week when the final clearance rate across the capitals recorded the lowest not only
this year, but the lowest reading since late 2015/ early 2016 (60.3 per cent). The lower weighted clearance rates of late can be attributed
to the continual softening conditions across the two largest markets of Melbourne and Sydney, with clearance rates tracking below 70 per
cent across Melbourne for 5 consecutive weeks now (67.4 per cent), however volumes across the city have been consistently higher; with
volumes this week reaching their second highest level this year (1,837), while Sydneys clearance rates have tracked around the mid-high
50 per cent range over 7 consecutive weeks (58.7 per cent). Across the smaller markets, Canberra recorded the highest preliminary
clearance rate this week, with 66.7 per cent of homes selling, while Brisbane returned the lowest with only 46.6 per cent of auctions
successful.

Time on market (TOM) is simply the middle number of days between when a property is first listed for sale and the contract date. The rate of vendor
discounting is the average percentage difference between the original listing price and the final selling price. The statistics are calculated across results
received by CoreLogic over the past week and include properties transacted over the past four weeks. The data is based on private treaty sales only and
records without a valid sale price have been excluded from the vendor discount analysis. The analysis also excludes results where there are less than 10
observations.
