    Last weekend's Melbourne Clearance Rate from Domain is 70%. See market is cooling down.

    Uh there were 45 properties listed for auction, which makes the clearance rate largely meaningless, as the sample size is far too small. It was also a public holiday weekend.

    SNR - statistically not reliable. Wait until auctions get back in full swing in February to decide.

    Definitely not reliable - with volumes at <10% of the average and timing/cultural underlying reasons for sporadic results, I wouldn't be reading into it at all.

    That was the same thing they said about Sydney in the last Qtr 2015 when clearance rates dropped from the 80 & 90%'s into the 70%'s..........and we all know what happened in 2016, and "cooling" was not a word I'd use to describe it. ;)
