Mal, what do you mean Volatile market?
You know that fiery girlfriend or boyfriend you are showing up for and you don’t know whether it’s going to be a great date or a disaster – that’s a volatile market.
It’s a risk. Do you go to the party, risk a public flop but increase your chances of getting lucky or do you stay home and text where it’s safe, but not much can happen – that’s a volatile strategy choice – auction or sit tight.
Volatility happens on market turns and the market IS turning – not with universal consistency but it IS turning. No bell ringing – for it could just as easily re-turn again.
May 2023 M2 is our second Inner Melbourne Top End market in a row that is up after a 5 down markets chain.
So, what do we know?
We are on low stock, extremely low stock and we are demand and supply markets – so a big improvement in supply in Spring may affect Bidderman and re-lower the market come footy finals time. Then again it may not – my guess, is it will be a solid market early.
Geographically Boroondara is a happening place and is now quite predictable – you go to auction – you will sell. This has really only started to confirm itself between M1 and M2 markets in 2023. On the other hand, Bayside is very much hit-and-miss.
Inner East v Bayside: See our Bidderman graphic below of the first 30 auction strings in our 100-auction test for 2023 M2 (May) which ended today.
The numbers represent Bidderman at each auction and green is an immediate sale or success v red is a pass-in or fail.
Inner East has a 50% higher Bidderman than By the Bay – that’s a Sydney/GWS crowd v a Demons/Saints Crowd – we are still a fair way off Pies v Bombers crowds of early 2022 and 2015/2016 – but late last year we were lucky to get a suburban bowls club crowd at auction.
Things are on the up and early Spring is looking ok.

The coffee truck kept the crowd well caffeinated while two bidders slowly edged towards the reserve. After Auctioneer Phillip Kingston passed the property in, bidder 1 moved inside to negotiate.

The market is strengthening. The results are volatile. The stock low and not increasing.
Micro
We have been to 4 homes in the last week to give opinions on price – the most since mid-last year and the markets – it’s really clear and simple what is happening overall, despite volatile individual results.
Overall, the market is creeping upwards but on the lowest turnover in a very long time. It’s volatile meaning not consistent and it’s that because volatility always occurs around directional change.
Some areas as you can see in our 100 Auction tests are on fire – like Inner East.
Bayside warmed today and Stonnington went back into the cooler at the lower levels.
Volatile.
However overall, the pressure is on Inner Melbourne buyers and will continue to build as stock remains low, and as the local, state and fed governments continue to have no housing policies of value.
AND as Xi, Philip and Vladimir do, whatever it is they feel they must do.
Macro
And when’s done is done, there are all the signs the Inner Melbourne property market will explode again once their handiwork smooths over.
Philip is playing with the middle Price segment by making people think twice about buying and selling where a mortgage is involved.
Xi affects Chinese people settling in Aus and once the migration floodgates open, the ripples from Inner East may become floods to the Bay where the Aussie Chinese high-end market is only in its infancy. Xi does affect Position. Why? The lack of private school places could be a catalyst for more Asian background communities to open and in turn, attract more Asian background people with more money and a need for high end homes near private schools. The Inner East is already at bursting point compared to Bayside, so does that make sense?
Vladimir is affecting the world’s supply chains and that is affecting the wealthy’s thoughts on business and also builds (Property) – when those issues are resolved, renovations will get back on the agenda and homes in need of a reno, will begin to attract volcanic bidding again.
It’s simple demand and supply = price change. We have no supply and demand is in a lull.
Buyers and sellers were on hot sauce in 2007, 2009, 2015/16 and 18 months ago, then the second half of last year they fell into treacle, but right now there’s some honey around (making prices volatile). It’s full steam ahead in the East and back on the hot sauce again.
What is happening in the markets on a PPP basis?
Legend: Red is a problem and green in good with amber mixed.
Position: If you were buying or selling a ready to move in home, top or bottom end in Boroondara then expect some action. Well that’s you Xi.
Price: If you were looking to sell a home needing a big mortgage in the $2m to $6m range in Bayside expect little, until you are prepared to give it away. Thanks Phil.
Property: If you have land in Stonnington and its higher end, say Toorak expect a 50/50 – may or may not sell – depends on right agent, right method and right price.
Mmmmm Vlad that’s you and wealth confidence and building chains of supply!

Mal and Gina, so we know you as buyer agents – what’s the “off-market selling” you do?
In a buy sell, on the sell, we manage the whole process. Our focus is price, strategy, presentation, agent selection, execution, and extras, all of which are largely ignored in many off-markets, big mistake.
Price: The most abused tool in your toolkit. Get it right and it’s off to the races, get it wrong and you’re mucking out the stables. Why is so little testing done on price prior to going to market? Why is your decision made on who tells you the highest number or who sounds the most credible, when neither of those is consistently the best strategy to get the best price.
Strategy: When the average bidders at auctions in this market is 1, why is the only strategy suggested by the agent quote ‘em low and watch ’em fly at auction. Don’t worry about the sales pitch of somebody else’s miracle auction, give me the logic on why 1 bidder auctions, quoted low, are a plus for you. They are not, they are efficient for the agent and good for the buyer.
Presentation: Why is there an unwritten law that if you are selling your home off-market: it’s ok to look less than its best? Some of our strongest arguments with our off market selling clients are about spending money on presentation. You need to do it, even if the agent says oh, she’ll be right. That’s total BS. Why would we go out on a limb if we didn’t know it makes a difference – why does an agent not push as hard as we do: turnover and lack of time.
Agent selection: You really wonder about some sellers when they say I am going with such and such, as I know her, or he is a mate, or he has been ringing me a lot for a long time (why isn’t he or she ringing buyers for existing selling clients). WTF. Would that cut it at work?
Does Ross Lyon or Brad Scott make their selections on mates or who is best for the job? The coaches they replaced have been hailed as hardly done by nice guys – but Ross and Brad are very different – a clear plan, good support and they don’t select their mate or who rings them up all the time – they select who is best for the job, after they have been through a series of tests.
Why narrow the field in your first act. Wouldn’t it make more sense to have more agents, bringing more buyers and wouldn’t it make sense to keep more agents on your side?
How do you feel when you are rejected? Pissed off and angry at who rejected you? Probably – so what do you think agents who didn’t get your job are saying to a buyer when asked about your home? Let them have a chance to sell it if they have the best buyer.
It doesn’t feel like rocket science, there is so much history and self interest in how some currently sell.
Competing: What do you want agents to compete on – promises or results. Huh? Why make your final selection on glossy brochures and a slick sales presentation – it’s a pointer for sure – but when all are slick and glossy (all look so similar) doesn’t it just become a case of mine is bigger than his, choose me.
What about bring me the offers – from multiple agents? Why not test credentials in an off-market competition? Agents tell you it’s all about competition to get you the best, well get them to compete. We compete all the time.
But be careful – if you can’t manage the public narrative, then multiple agents instead of a better deal, become a fight to the bottom.
Execution: For all the not so nice things you can say about agents – there is one huge plus – their ability to focus on cutting a deal. It’s brilliant. But what happens if that deal is not in your best interests right this second? There seems to be no pause and reflect button on our agent friends at times. We encourage pause and reflect and then accept or keep going.
Extras: How can your agent take the time to give you something extra when they have 6 to 10 campaigns running this week – sorry I can’t see you at this time or this time or this time, but I can see you at 10.57 in my office for 3 minutes – and you’re the client. The buyers must be getting less. Catch 22 – if they are not full on, then do you want them?
Solution: Let them do what they do best – call and call and call and combine them with someone who can bring strategies to the table like a mexican wave, another buyer, another agent and advice to hold until we get a competing buyer and more.
Real Life: This week the off-market above was a multi-agent home where we ran a mexican wave in Marketnews over the Easter weeks and sold in the low $4m’s having been bought in the high $2m’s during Covid – nothing done to it. It’s a great home.
Multi-agent Off-market began Feb 4 with a welcome meeting:
- Selling client was a reader of marketnews – unhappy with agent advice she had received.
- She rang us. We made a presentation to be open and look at all angles.
- We were given an authority, organised a contract, produced an SOI and gave access. The 4 off-market ducks.
- Gina replaced the styling with a new style.
- We selected to go off-market with a multi-agent strategy.
- We replaced the photography.
- We ran a mexican wave in Marketnews
- Solid interest in Week 1 from 1 buyer, via an agent.
- We at marketnews produced buyer 2 with solid interest in Week 3
- Selling client and agent and James Buy Sell meeting: strategy to make it happen as we now had 2 solid and understood buyers.
- An auction (we do love them when the ingredients are there) was organised over the phone and strong competition from mid $3m’s and on the market to over $4m. Agent did a great job. The buyer bought well.
- The buyer came from a marketnews mexican wave and looked at a beautifully presented off-market home and competed against another buyer from another agent – the brilliance of multi-agent.

“If you’re thinking of selling don’t look past Gina and Mal for exceptional results. It’s their business to know how to stage a house and garden, know the best time of the year to sell in different areas, and they will know the key selling points of your house (and they can arrange for all of this to happen for you). They know how to negotiate and more importantly, how to time negotiations. They know the real estate agents and know who will be the right one for you. You’re in really safe hands and most importantly they’re honest – they will advise to not sell if the offer isn’t right. They’re truly ‘on your side’ and advise you on how to get the best outcome for you. My advice: at the very least meet with them – you won’t be disappointed.”
Our Buy Sell Client on this Aspendale home
2021 Bought - $19m

2023 Sold - $23m


Normally we say nothing - privacy - but somebody else splashed it all over the papers. In 2021 we bought for our client. This week sold for a $4m gross profit in 2 years. Same home, same agent. In fact same clients we acted for on another $4m+ profit Toorak home previously. That's a +20% uplift as the Toorak median dropped 10%.
"It's easy when you work for smart people." Mal, Gina and Sim
