The Gold coast showed continued weakness with a clearance rate of just 35 percent at auction last weekend, a drop of more than seven percent then their performance last week.

Of the 58 residential properties taken to auction only 20 were successfully sold indicating a clearance rate more than 20 percent worse than the combined capital city average, according CoreLogic. 

A clearance rate of 55.5 percent across the combined capital cities was recorded this week, increasing from last week’s final clearance rate of 51.8 percent while over the same week last year the final clearance rate was recorded at 66.2 percent.

There were 2,404 homes taken to auction across the combined capital cities this week, an increase of over 20 percent from 1,983 over the previous week.
