The auction markets in Sydney are proving to be far stronger than they were last year.
Australian Property Monitors (APM) reported a 73 per cent weekend auction clearance rate for last Saturday 13th April, which is 15 percentage points above the 57.7 per cent for the same weekend last year.
“Buyer activity has shown no signs of waning since the Easter break with weekend auction clearance rates strengthening to the highest levels recorded in a month,” APM’s senior economist, Dr Andrew Wilson, said.

The highest price reported in Sydney was $2.13 million for a four-bedroom house in Paddington with the strongest region in Sydney being the lower north shore at 89 per cent clearance rate.
