Properties are selling for massive discounts in certain pockets of Sydney<\/a> as sellers readjust their expectations following two years of epic price growth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Discounts of 10-15 per cent have been reported in the top end of the market while one suburb in particular has seen up to 20 per cent knocked off the purchase price of units and almost $1m come off the purchase price of houses.<\/p>\n

Open borders and rising interest rates have been held to blame for a drop in buyer demand leading to falling prices at the top end of the market.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have seen examples of properties selling for 10 to 15 per cent less than would have been achieved at the peak of the market,\u201d Mr Wargent said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn October and November last year, open homes were very busy for the summer selling season, and most auctions saw multiple bidders in action.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow open homes are considerably quieter, and the majority of Sydney auction campaigns either end in the property being withdrawn from the market or passed in at the auction, to be negotiated upon thereafter.\u201d<\/p>\n

BuyerBuyers CEO Doron Peleg said prices would continue to slide before hitting a bottom early next year, giving buyers \u201ca comfortable six month window of opportunity to buy well and negotiate hard in Sydney.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ray White Unlimited \u2013 Bondi Beach associate director Monica Shor said property in Bondi Junction had dropped 10-20 per cent over the past three months as the market realigned.<\/p>\n

She recently sold a three bedroom unit at 17\/2A Hollywood Ave for $1.76m after selling a similar apartment in the same complex in February for $2.05m.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn housing we\u2019ve seen almost a $1m drop,\u201d Ms Shor said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are a number of semis in North Bondi that were selling last year at $5.1m, $5m, $4.9m, $4.8m and now they are selling at $3.9m-$4m.\u201d<\/p>\n
