OnTheHouse (very useful site, shows multiple past sales results for properties in any suburb)
http://www.onthehouse.com.au/

I've been using this site a fair bit recently and find it really annoying how you can't make the map any bigger. I wish the map would stretch to my screen size when I maximize the browser window.

Other than that it's great.

Just today I saw this house listed for sale:

http://www.domain.com.au/Public/PropertyDetails.aspx?adid=2007757556

Nothing about the ad suggests it's a desperate vendor after an urgent sale, however after checking onthehouse.com.au I saw that they only just bought the house 2 months ago. So I'm thinking maybe they bought it and then realised they couldn't make the payments on it? It was bought for $7,150,000 on 19/06/2009.

Is that information freely available on one of the sites listed above? Or did you find out through other means?

Edit: After a bit of digging I found an article from 15th May 2009, saying he currently owns it. So I guess he's the one who sold it for $7.15m to the now current owners on 19th June.

 

[ianvestor]

This is strange, the ad has been updated to claim it was sold for the exact same price as onthehouse mentioned, but a different date.

SOLD - $7,150,000
Sale Type:
Auction
Sale Date:
SEP 09

If it's for real, how can an auction achieve a result that coincidental?

Historical Median Suburb prices

Hi,

Does someone know where I can find 10 or 15 year old Historical Suburb Median price data? Thanks in advance.

Sam

 

[RedPanda]

Thanks John. The information I am looking for might be available at PriceFinder but will need to subscribe to find out for $255/month. RP Data suburb profile does contain a chart of historical values for 10 years but there are no values printed for each of the bars, so interpretation is difficult and inaccurate.

I didn't think finding median house price vales for different suburbs for last 15 years would be a difficult data to find.

wow this is great info and I'd to bump up this thread.

 

[redwing]

www.refindhouseprices.com will apparently show you listing age and discounts to the price
