Figures as at Saturday 12 September 2026. 1,615 homes go under the hammer across the capital cities today — the biggest auction day of the spring so far, up 12.9% on last weekend's 1,431, but 32.8% below the 2,402 held the same weekend last year (Cotality, 11 September). Today's results are not in this episode: they land tonight, and we take them next week with the final figure rather than the preliminary one. What this episode covers is where the market stood walking in. Last weekend's FINAL national clearance rate was 49.3% — the 14th week in the past 15 under fifty, against 70.0% the same week a year ago. Melbourne finished strongest of the majors at 54.6% on rising volumes, Sydney 52.5% on volumes easing to just over 500, and Brisbane 26.0%. Why a weak Brisbane auction rate says less about Brisbane housing than it appears to. Why falling volumes usually lift a clearance rate and have not. What passing in actually means for a home, and why a 50% clearance rate does not mean half the market is frozen. Plus what to read in tonight's preliminary number, and why sample size makes it worth more than the ones before it. General market information only, not financial or property advice, and it does not consider your circumstances. Every figure is published with its source and release date in the show notes.
