So, I had a West Ryde unit valued in about Sept 2014 at $390k. I've had it valued again, this time it was valued at $550k. That's an extra $160k in 8 months!!! (41% increase!)
It was done via CBA both times, and no work has been done to the place in the meantime.
Now whoever valued it at $390k September last year, so unbelievable. So much happier this time around.

Just attended an auction in Pendle Hill, 645sqm, 15.3m frontage. Surrounded by commercial warehouses & aged care on one side. Sold for $896,000. Purchased by 4 buyers to build a duplex. To me numbers don't work.
This is roughly 40% growth in the last 14 months....
Agent inspected our Pendle Hill IP and thinks that they can achieve 1.1 mil. Compared to the above property, ours is 720 sqm with 18 frontage. It is also front sloping.
I'm a bit tempted but it is a cash cow thanks to the granny flat.
I think it's a good long term hold given it's proximity to Parramatta. This strong market is good for those holding. We're just up the road and we thought we paid a tad over market value. Thanks to the agent....we purchased the night before the property hit the market 14 months ago.
happy ?

82 VICTOR AVENUE, PICNIC POINT sold this weekend at auction for $1.75m, it last sold new in 2007 for $520k... anyone else ready to agree prices are getting to (or in) bubble territory?
Hmm could've been the case... RE adverts says it's 7 years old. Either owner bought an old house, knocked it down, built new, owned for 7 years and then sold or it was sold as a new house in 2007 (& selling again now). Either way it's a big jump in value (either doubled or tripled in value depending on order of events, in 8 years).Its a pretty new house, i have a feeling they did a knockdown rebuild in that time....

Reality: Other evidence suggests prices are still rising strongly, but highlighting the auction median as significant is a bit silly, especially when it's been much higher recently.

True dat.Hype thread .
A five-bedroom house on a large block in Balwyn has returned an extraordinary $960,000 profit in just eight months after lying empty for that time.
True dat.
In the spirit of the thread then, how to make a million dollars Sydney style:
Buy a house
Wait 8 months
Sell the house

True, but that means I'll be able to chuckle from the sidelines just as easily once prices peak, don't be left holding the bag
It's highly unlikely I will ever own resi property in Sydney, but it sure is fun to watch.
