Auction activity set to increase after the Easter long weekend
There are currently 1,092 capital city homes scheduled for auction this week, up 69.6% on last week (644), although -44.4% lower than the same week last year (1,964). This week’s auction activity is likely impacted by another long weekend with ANZAC Day falling on a Friday this year.
Melbourne is set to be the busiest auction market this week, with 446 homes scheduled for auction across the city. Last week saw 148 homes go under the hammer, while this time last year, 893 auctions were held.
In Sydney, 438 homes are scheduled for auction this week, compared to 359 last week and 667 this time last year.
Across the smaller capitals, Brisbane is set to host the most auctions this week (95), followed by Adelaide (79) and Canberra (29). Just five homes are set to go under the hammer in Perth this week, while there are no auctions on the radar in Tasmania.
There are currently just under 1,500 capital city homes scheduled for auction next week.
