Some 1400 Melbourne homes are expected to go to auction this coming weekend, 26 November, in what will be the biggest test of the spring selling selling season, according to Domain Group's chief economist Andrew Wilson.

He said the weekend will see the Sydney market host its peak spring Super Saturday of auctions with more than 950 homes due to go under the hammer.

"Auction numbers have been significantly lower in Sydney this year compared to last, however, the gap has been narrowing in recent weekends providing more choice for hungry buyers," he said.

"The Sydney market will host its peak spring Super Saturday of auctions with more than 950 homes due to go under the hammer.

"Late spring auction numbers have increased sharply since the Melbourne Cup holiday weekend, with the usual rush to market by sellers who want to get in before the year ends.

"Higher listings have contributed to a slight easing in clearance rates in recent weeks, but results remain firmly in favour of sellers in what remains strong local market conditions."
