I heard 60% for Sydney over the weekend (source - 2GB on Monday morning).

An interesting tag to the MSN story re:dummy bidder vs vendor bid - here on the Gold Coast with auctions I have attended, the Auctioneer explicitly indicates that he is placing a vendor bid.
I can't really see much of a difference between a vendor bid by a bird/dog vs a dummy bid.

I agree with you Rambada, I think you get the true market value if ALL the bids came from the market & not pushed along with Vendor bids (who most of the time have an un-realistic reserve price set)... so when a property gets passed in at say $300,000 & the last genuine bid was at $250,000, it gives us un-realistic prices for the suburb & an un-realistic expectation for other Vendors looking at selling their home in the same location... That is my personal feeling...

Cheers,

Manny.

Melbourne was about 63% on just under 1100 properties

A bit late but Canberra was about 65% I believe. This is down a bit from sept but not bad just the same. People are still digesting the election I think.
