Sydney auction clearance rates continue to impress
Sydney’s auction clearance rates continue to impress. The capital city has posted a figure of 86.1% for the third weekend of September. Especially impressive is the figure for the Sydney Inner West- a mammoth 95% clearance rate, reports an article on Your Investment Property.
