Ryde values were down by 13.3 percent over the year to December 31.

Sydney's inner south west was the next weakest with values down 10.9 percent.

Melbourne's inner east was the worst performing area of 2018, seeing declines of 13.4 percent.

There was a late year deterioration in values as Ryde's decline was put at 9.4 percent in August (below).

Recent Ryde sales included a one-bedroom apartment at 4 Devlin Street (above), which sold for $565,000, some $115,000 less than its 2014 off the plan purchase price.

Ryde district vendors were having to adjust their expectations with losses emerging for some.
 
Another off the plan purchase in Ryde went backwards recently. 
 
The apartment was bought for $713,000. The Belmore Street two bedroom apartment recently sold for $691,000.
 
A two bedroom Macquarie Park apartment recently sold for $808,000, just $8,000 more than than two years ago. The sale fell well short of its initial $870,000 guide, and would have meant a loss after costs including stamp duty and estate agent commission.
