Extracts from a story in today's Courier Mail: HOMEBUYER confidence has taken a dive in southeast Queensland with predictions of more pain to come.While auction clearance rates have been on the way down for months, auctioneers are now reporting a drop in those even registering to bid.Auctioneer Jason Andrew said only half the auctions he held last week attracted bidder registrations – significantly down on the highs of 80 per cent over the previous two weeks."Sixty one per cent of the properties we auctioned did not attract a genuine bid," he said." One property in particular sold for almost $300,000 under the vendor's original reserve."
"Buyer Confidence Low"
