Top 10 most discounted properties in Australia at July 28

<html><body>
Since the publication of <a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/hotspots/the-10-most-discounted-properties-in-australia-at-june-1/2011060250371" target="_blank" title="Last week's most discounted properties data">last week's most discounted property figures</a>, the vendors of the most discounted property in Australia seem to have lowered their asking price a further $20,000, down to $380,000. This is a tad more reasonable then the property's original asking price of $700,000!
There have been a variety of opinions surrounding not only this particular property but others like it that have been grossly overvalued and/or overpriced. Much of the blame has been pinned on agents for spruiking inflated valuations and making unattainable promises to vendors.
What we have to remember as potential investors is that we can't always blame the agents in these particular cases. Often it is the vendor who has a misguided, delusional idea of what the property is worth, and in the end it is the vendor that has the final say when it comes to pricing.

SQM's top 10 discount list has little change

<html><body>
The list remains quite steady from<a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/hotspots/the-most-discounted-properties-in-australia-at-june-7/2011060750433" title="Last week's most discounted property list" target="_blank"> last week</a>, with a newer batch of regular properties repeatedly making the top 10 each week. It is now properties from Queensland and Western Australia that are continuing to dominate our list of slashed property prices. This is in line with our recent forecast that these states (Queensland and Western Australia) will suffer steeper falls than the others, comparatively speaking.
What is particularly noteworthy about this week's list is that we have finally been graced with the addition of a discounted property in Victoria! It has been a while since we have seen discounts from this state in our top 10, and number nine on the list, 2506/83 Queensbridge Street Southbank 3006, has been discounted by a whopping 30%. This property is apparently going to auction at a price range given of at least $500,000 less that the vendor's orginal asking price. Having said this, these types of auction advertisements can often be ambigious, as it is never known whether bidding is expected to start from the given price range or whether the vendor is hoping to acheive a sale within the given price range.

The 10 most discounted properties in Australia at June 16

<html><body>
Sydney and Melbourne are noticeably absent from the most recent nationwide list of the country's most discounted suburbs and have had minimal presence in recent weeks.
We think to a certain extent that this reflects <a href="https://www.sqmresearch.com.au/" title="SQM Research" target="_blank">SQM Research</a>'s initial forecast for 2011, that the state of Queensland is set to suffer a little more than the others, and is already showing declines on a larger scale comparatively. With three properties in the top end of our list with discounts in the percentage range of 37% to 43%, Queensland is taking the lead so to speak where the slashing of prices is concerned.
Of course this is suburb-specific, and not all areas are suffering similarly, but the regions that are being hit this year are being hit hard.

The 10 most discounted properties in Australia at June 1

<html><body>
Properties on the Central Coast and in the Blue Mountains dominate SQM Research's top 10 most discounted properties in New South Wales, with four out of the 10 on the Central Coast and two in the Blue Mountains. Nine out of the 10 properties have lingered on the market for more than 100 days. 
"We have long been saying that NSW's Central Coast has been suffering somewhat of a slump in property prices in recent years, with an influx of homes entering the market from this region in 2010 and 2011," SQM director Louis Christopher says.
"It is fair to assume that this particular area's initial popularity (approximately in between 2002- 2007) has begun to wear off a little."
Although a few high-end Sydney properties feature on the list, Christopher suggests that Sydney property prices will outperform those of other capitals in the near future. 
"As a general overview, SQM Research forecasts New South Wales, particularly Sydney's property prices, to do relatively better than other capital cities," he says.
"We predict marginal declines of up to 4% for this calendar year with the potential that the marker may just end up being flat for the year."

NSW Central Coast market in a slump as vendors offer discounts: SQM Research

<html><body>
A three-hectare landholding in Western Australia has come onto SQM Research's most discounted list. Although the property includes a two-bedroom, two-bathroom house, it is primarily a rural property and not exactly comparable to the other properties on the list. The acreage was listed in April 2011 with prices hopes of $5.5 million, but has recently had a $2 million knocked off its price tag.

WA landholding makes debut on SQM discount list

<html><body>
SQM Research’s top 10 discounted properties list this week focuses solely on Victoria. It's headed by a Hoppers Crossing property that has been on the market since April 2011.   Melbourne properties don't usually make it onto the most discounted national list, save for two Southbank apartments, 195/38 Kavanagh Street and 2506/83 Queensbridge Street, whichhave made appearances for several months.

The price hopes for the Kavanagh Street property were $1.1 million in mid-August, but now the vendors are hoping for $1.18 million. This is still a 25% discount on the $1.56 million the vendors wanted for the property when they listed it in September 2010.

The Queensbridge Street unit made its debut on SQM's list in mid-June with a price reduction of 30%, from $2.15 million to $1.5 million. The vendors are now hoping to secure $1.65 million, a discount of 23% from its original October 2010 price hopes.

Southbank properties raise price expectations but still feature on SQM's Victorian discount list

<html><body>
A heavy discount on a property’s price hopes can often mean its vendor misjudged the market when first putting it up for sale, says SQM Research.

On releasing its latest list of the top 10 most discounted properties in Australia, the research firm points out that the Queensland property at the top of the list has had its price hopes slashed by 42%.
The former number-one most discounted property, in Tasmania, is no longer on the discount list because its price hopes have risen.
Macleay Island now takes the top spot. Homes in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.urban.com.au/property-observer">Macleay Island</a> have an average discount of 19%, according to RP Data.

<a title="Click to enlarge" rel="shadowbox" href="/images/stories/macleaymap.jpg"><img src="/images/stories/macleaymapthumb.jpg"></a>
"Our number one property on this week's list – 92 Beelong Street, Macleay Island 4184 – was initially priced at $590,000, only to be still sitting on the market now at $340,000," SQM says.
"It is evident that there was a level of misjudgement concerning the market value of this home, but what is possibly the most tragic about this particular example is that this misjudgement stems back to the previous sale of the property, where it was in fact sold for $590,000 back in December 2007."
The property has been listed by the mortgagee in possession since November 2011. 
"Yes, this is not necessarily your average home in an average location, however losing $250,000 in the space of four years is probably not what the vendors of this property had in mind when they originally bought it in 2007,"  SQM says.
