Jess and Norm were red hot favourites going into the weekend’s auctions, but were thwarted at the finish line by a combination of factors, according to a valuer with over 25 years’ experience.

In a major break from reality, Jess and Norm sold their unit for $2.859m — over half a million more ($569,000) than Darren and Deanne did in 2015’s Triple Threat ($2.29million).
