Melbourne is just quieting; the rate of price growth isdefinitely slowing,\u2019\u2019 Mr Edwards said.<\/p>\n<p>There was a strong level of demand witnessed in yesterday\u2019s auction market as a surge of stock hit the market ahead of next week\u2019s lull for the AFL grand final.<\/p>\n<p>The Real Estate Institute of Victoria said that 72 per cent of the 607 properties up for auction this week were sold.<\/p>\n<p>After tracking down a large number of unreported auction results from last Saturday, the REIV has downgraded last weekend\u2019s clearance rate from 70 per cent&nbsp; to 67 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>The outcome of 132 auctions from yesterday are still unknown, which may affect this week\u2019s clearance rate as well.<\/p>\n<p>In Footscray, the vendors of 2 Dawson Avenue saw the value of their double fronted weatherboard house rise<br \/>\n$200,000 in just over three years.<\/p>\n<p>The three-bedroom property was bought for $411,000 in May 2007 and sold yesterday through Jas H Stephens for $611,000. It was quoted at $540,000 to $590,000 and declared on the market at $585,000.<\/p>\n<p>A first home buyer beat an investor and two other would-be buyers at the fall of the hammer on&nbsp; 2\/460&nbsp; Middleborough Road in Blackburn. The double-storey, two-bedroom villa unit sold for $485,000 after hitting its reserve at $440,000.<\/p>\n<p>Ray White quoted the property at more than $400,000.<\/p>\n<p>The two-bedroom villa unit at 4\/2-4 Simpson Street in Kew, one of a set of five, sold yesterday for $627,500 after being declared on the market at $620,000.<\/p>\n<p>It was quoted at $500,000 to $550,000. Janet Spencer of Buyer Solutions, who was the under-bidder on the property, said a similar but unrenovated unit in the same set sold for $590,500 in August.<\/p>\n<p>In Elwood, a two-way competition developed over 14 Ruskin Street after Hocking Stuart opened the auction of the three-bedroom Edwardian with a vendor bid of $1.05 million.<\/p>\n<p>Declared on the market at $1.17 million, the property sold for $1.2 million after receiving about 25 bids. It was quoted at $1.05 to $1.15 million.<\/p>\n<p>Six bidders fought over 1\/42 Union Street in Brighton East, a renovated 1960s villa unit that sold for&nbsp; $650,000.<\/p>\n<p>Hodges said that two bidders went tit-for-tat at the auction after the property was declared on the market at $600,000. It was quoted at $490,000 to $550,000.<\/p>\n<p>The three-bedroom unit at 1\/32 Loller Street in Brighton attracted enough genuine interest to open at $700,000 and rise to $750,000 before passing in.<\/p>\n<p>ResCom Real Estate said a later offer of $765,000 was received but the reserve was $830,000.<\/p>\n<p>In Armadale, the six-bedroom house at 28 Seymour Avenue passed in at $3.25 million after attracting just one<br \/>\ngenuine bid, according to buyer\u2019s advocate Michael Ramsay.Marshall White, who quoted the property at $3.5 million-plus, sold the property through after-auction negotiations but the price was undisclosed.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere at the top end, the five bedroom house at 23 Bevan Street in Balwyn also sold through after-auction<br \/>\nnegotiations for $3.48 million. JPP Buyer Advocates said it attracted only one genuine bid at $3.15 million before passing in.<\/p>\n<p>Jellis Craig had quoted it at $3.3 to $3.6 million.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the latest update on the Consumer Affairs Victoria inspection operation staged lastweek is that the regulator found only some minor \u2018\u2018technical breaches\u2019\u2019 by agents at the 30 auctions they observed, instead of&nbsp; the 100 auctions reported by MarketWrap last week.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2018The vast majority of the auctions visited were all conducted in the correct manner,\u2019\u2019 CAV director Dr Claire&nbsp; Noone said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\tMelbourne house prices static in August 2010\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[27,8,35,28,17,56,21,36],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Melbourne house prices static - Insight Property Valuation<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Melbourne property prices remain static at present and there is uncertainty in the market.
