In Sydney, 71.3 per cent of all properties put up for sale cleared, a slight improvement on last weekend’s 69.7 per cent clearance rate.

The most expensive property sold in the city over the weekend was a five bedroom house in Avalon, which sold for $5.1 million.

Meanwhile, Adelaide and Brisbane both showed consistent results.

Adelaide recorded an auction clearance rate of 55.7 per cent, down from the 66.7 per cent recorded last weekend.

Brisbane meanwhile recorded a clearance rate of 47.8 per cent, up from the 34.3 per cent posted last weekend.
