The Perth metropolitian council regions with the highest proportion of loss making resales over the quarter were: Perth (52.8%), Mosman Park (37.5%) and Cottesloe (33.3%), according to the latest CoreLogic Pain and Gain report. 

The report compares the most recent sale price to the previous sale price in order to determine whether the property sold at a gross profit or gross loss. 

Some 17.9% of resold houses and 30.2% of resold units across Perth over the June 2016 quarter were sold for less than the previous purchase price, with loss-making resales of houses at their highest level since September 1996 and unit losses at record highs.
