The top 10 most discounted properties in Western Australia: SQM Research
Jennifer DukeDecember 17, 2020

Vendor discounting figures are regularly collected by research house SQM Research. Now, they’ve compiled the 10 most discounted individual properties in Western Australia.

They note that Western Australia is a locality that has undergone substantial change in recent years for residential property, with the mining boom and subsequent downturn.

“Many of the properties we see below can be easily recognized from our national top ten most discounted properties, as over the past few months, Perth properties (and other properties from Western Australia) have made up the bulk of the list,” their research notes.

Just one of the homes on SQM Research’s Western Australian list had an initial asking price below $1 million, which is certainly not the norm for discounted properties across the country. After discounting, just two dropped of the Western Australian properties dropped below the seven figure mark.

Across the entire list, two were from South Perth, with the top two in Carabooda.
