Long story short....
Settled on a house December last year. Purchased at auction $582K. Three friends attended auction (didn't know they were going to be there) and upon winning the house all told me I paid $25k too much! I disagreed with them and told them I paid market price, perhaps even a little under!
Fast forward exactly one year later. A very comparable house went to auction yesterday in the same street (3 houses down) sold for $755K. Same size block and condition of house. Another went to auction 4 months ago (next door), again comparable to mine, $722K.
Had a very happy weekend
