In April there were 2060 auctions in Australia, with a 53% clearance rate. The previous busiest April was in 2000, with 1700 auctions. Last year there were 1550 auctions with a 69% clearance rate.
Year-to-date clearance rate stands at 55%, marginally better than in December last year. The RP Data-Rismark index shows capital city values fell by 2.1% in the first quarter of 2011, seasonally adjusted, pulled down especially by Brisbane, down 4.6%.
