Auction clearance rates remain below 60% across the combined capital cities.
Cotality reported the preliminary combined capital city clearance rate reached 58.2%, up slightly from 57.5% the week before — but still below the 60% benchmark for six of the past eight weeks. Auction volumes also increased, with 2,339 homes taken to auction, up 19% week-on-week.
For brokers, this is a reminder that the market is shifting.
When clearance rates soften, buyers and investors may become more cautious — but serious clients still need lending options that help them move with confidence.
At LoanOne, we support brokers with flexible lending solutions across residential, investment, expat, non-resident and SMSF scenarios, helping you find the right path forward in a changing property market.
