Boasting an inspirational renovation, the iconic Glenvill home at 13 Silverene Court in Vermont South drew a lot of interest throughout the campaign, despite the impact of an extended lockdown. Offering a superb lifestyle amongst well-kept, landscaped gardens, six bidders competed to secure the home during the online auction. Auctioneer Jeremy Desmier knocked the property down to the successful bidder at $1,723,000.
On Sunday afternoon, Director Ben Williams conducted a relaxed online auction to determine who would be the new owner of the three-bedroom family home at 33 Thornhill Drive in Forest Hill. A total of five bidders participated, until just two determined bidders traded bids until the successful purchaser placed the winning bid!
My team and I sold the near-new, masterfully designed home at 16 Peter Street in Box Hill North prior to its scheduled online auction, for $1,670,000. Recently constructed by the owner, the four-bedroom home offers glamorous interiors, deluxe Neff kitchen and sophisticated lounge/dining out to an undercover alfresco.
As we settle into the Spring selling period, it is clear that whilst it may look a little different, buyer demand remains high. The REA Group reports that prices increased rapidly during the pandemic, with data showing a 20.7% increase in national property prices over the 12 months to August.
The reduction in stock levels due to the extended lockdown has had an impact, creating a high level of pent-up demand. With the easing of restrictions to allow for private inspections and for photography and marketing to be completed, this should help to provide buyers with a greater level of choice and reduce some of the competition for individual properties.
Record low borrowing rates have also been a major driver of the increase in property prices, with the Reserve Bank of Australia holding official interest rates at the record low of 0.1% at its monthly meeting.
