Well it was a bit of a mixed bag for sales results today, with a Windsor estate selling for $4.83 million, a Chelmer residence changing hands for $2.325 million and a Noosa Waters property selling under the hammer for $3.85 million.
Some affordable properties also sold for surprising prices, at least compared to what they might have gone for just a few months ago.
But there were a few common themes across the day, from buyers sitting on their hands, unsure of where they sit with the banks, to growing concerns that the interstate investor market has been sucked dry amid concerns over the looming land tax.
Regardless, as one agent put it: "The market is back to normal".
The frenzy is over and buyers are going into deals with more conditions than in the recent past.
"We can't really complain," one agent said. "We have had it good for so long."
"But then again, maybe it was just the worst weekend to hold an auction, what with the school holidays and AFL grand final on."
Indeed, not much sold after the first whistle sounded at 2.30pm. It was crickets.
