If it's not marked as PI, I would be interested to know whether you had any say it being unreported or marked as withdrawn, or if the agent indicated anything to that effect on the basis of the ongoing negotiations.

My house is NOT listed in that list and I did not request for it to be withheld nor did he indicate he was going to do that. In his defense though, we were in negotiations till quite late in the day and he kept saying if we could get them to sign before midnight, it would still be under auction conditions so maybe he just wasn't certain what the results would be.
Edit: Actually looking at the time of this post http://australianpropertyforum.com/single/?p=8244444&t=8385815 the list was compiled before 6:30pm and yet at 6:00pm we were still negotiating with a hope it would be sold that day under auction conditions.
"Kids don't need their individual rooms yet at this age so we will delay building our dream home until the market picks up and we can sell this house for more."
cool, just as long as everyone else doesn't think that...
What does $850K buy in Inner West Sydney anyway? Something built or renoed in the last 10 years and 20+ squares of living plus double car accommodation, 4 BRs and a bit of a yard? Or does one have to push $1M to get that? Just curious as to how crazy our prices really are.
Sorry, missed this post.
When I was looking for an engagement ring for my now wife, I researched about diamonds. Caret, Clarity, Color and Cut
If you wanted a diamond with all the above features, it will cost you a mint as that is what everyone else was looking for as well. However if you are willing to compromise on 1 or more of the above features, the price rapidly drops
My feeling about the Sydney Inner West property market is similar If you want good suburb, close to city, close to transport, new or renovated, not on main road, big interior space, big yard, then you are going to have to pay a fair bit for it as that is highly demanded. But if you compromise a bit the price comes down fairly quickly.
i.e. If you went down to a 2 bedroom apartment, you could get it for half of $850k or if you were willing to put up with main road, once again it will be a lot less than $850k or if you were willing to live in a seedier suburb (think housing commission area) then once again you will get a lot of change from $850k
To answer your question whether you could obtain everything in your list for $850k, the answer is yes you can - but don't expect it to be perfect. The perfect ones costs more than what an average man can afford - kinda like diamonds really. :cool:
Trojan - you asked the question 'does anyone want to guess how the market has performed in the past 5 years' Well how has it performed?? Cos reading through this post it sounds pretty shit to me.
Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
