Seventy per cent of Brisbane house auctions scheduled for Saturday are still going ahead, despite large parts of the city being submerged in this week’s flood emergency.

SEE THE LINE-UP FOR OUR LIVE AUCTION COVERAGE BELOW

Saturday was to be a super auction weekend with 120 homes going under the hammer. A lethal combination of river and flash flooding saw more than 15,000 properties experience flooding to some degree.

Despite the widespread flood emergency, 84 of Saturday’s planned auctions will still go ahead, including auctions in Indooroopilly, Ashgrove and Graceville, while at least one home has converted to a private treaty sale in Rocklea, with an amended listing that simply says: “Raised Top Level Untouched And In Perfect Condition”.

There are 13 auctions that have been postponed to either next weekend or the weekend after, eight that have now been converted to private treaty sales, eight that sold prior to Saturday’s auction, one auction that was postponed with no new date fixed, and four homes in Oxley, Goodna, Banyo and Northgate that had their auctions cancelled and were taken off the market.

We will bring you live auction coverage across Greater Brisbane with award-winning auctioneers Justin Nickerson, Paul Curtain, Peter Burgin, David Holmes and Christian Hamilton so you can keep an eye on the Brisbane property market in real time. Our first auction starts at 10am.

Buyers remain keen to participate in auctions this weekend and don’t mind whether they do so in person, on the phone or online. Picture: John Gass

Place Estate Agents are helping out with the flood relief work and reallocating their Auction Patrol crew to the clean-up. “And our Bulimba office is open and offering power for the charging of laptops, anything we can do to help the community,” agent Meagan Muir says. “Looking at the floods on the news is one thing but seeing it first-hand is confronting and we want to help.” This dual-living home with a 25m pool and a half-court basketball court was not flood affected. “Areas that haven’t endured the brunt of the weather are on people’s radar at the moment,” she says.

The outer southern suburb of Kuraby was once part of Eight Mile Plains and became its own suburb in the 1970s. This property with an in-ground swimming pool and paved outdoor patio area, is coming to market for the first time since being built more than 20 years ago.
“This is a very tightly held street and there is lots of local interest in this property because houses like this don’t come on the market often in this area,” Estate agent Happy Helen says. It is conveniently located close to the Underwood Marketplace and the Eight Mile Plains shopping centre. Agency: Happy Real Estate International; Auctioneer: David Holmes (on-site)
