Over the last seven days The Agency’s Sydney operation has turned over three $10 million-plus sales on the Lower North Shore, Inner West and Inner East of Sydney.

This is off the back of three $10 million-plus sales transacted last month by Ben Collier.

“The fact many of these sales have occurred on properties that were both on the market pre Covid-19 and properties that came onto the market during the pandemic, shows prestige buyers have been staunch in their appetite for quality property,” said Thomas McGlynn, The Agency’s National Head of Sales.

At a Glance:

• Over the last seven days The Agency have turned over three $10 million plus properties in Sydney
• At the end of last month Ben Collier sold three $10 million plus properties
• Tony Laing and Michael Laing sold Drummoyne property on the market for $12 million
• David Rothschild sold a harbourside home in Seaforth, on the market for $12.95 million
• $60 million plus of prestige property sold by The Agency across six sales in Sydney, in last four weeks

“Seeing these significant sales transact over the last four weeks, confirms the Sydney property market remains robust throughout this period.

"This is further illustrated by the clearance rates over the last few weeks that have consistently sat around 70 per cent.”

In the last seven days Michael Laing and Tony Laing sold ‘Melton’ in Drummoyne, which was on the market for $12 million and listed prior to Covid-19.

David Rothschild sold a harbourside home in Seaforth, which was on the market for $12.95 million and also in the market pre Covid-19.

These two major transactions were rounded out by the off-market sale of an Inner East development site by Steven Chen, The Agency’s Head of Projects and Matt Lahood, CEO, The Agency for more than $12 million.

“The developer who purchased the Inner City site was looking to fill their pipeline and is working to launch the project in the last quarter of 2020,” said Mr Chen.

“While the current sentiment is one of caution, limited stock and land availability is seeing developers look to off-market transactions to keep their pipeline flowing.

"We have also seen an increase in developers looking to enter into joint venture opportunities with land owners and existing developers who are finding funding an issue.”

According to Steven Chen, the market for completed stock on new projects has been strong, as reflected in the sales of their recent project listing Casa Residences ll, consisting of 94 apartments with 25 remaining units recently completed.

“We have had this project on the market for the last 10 days exclusively and we have transacted four properties in excess of $4 million," said Mr Chen.

"Buyers are more confident to look at the finished stock than off the plan.

"We have seen a strong surge in local interest within this precinct.” 

When you combine the strong auction clearance rates, significant luxury transactions and high rates of buyer enquiry on new projects and exisiting homes, it is clear confidence is continuing to build in the Sydney property market.

“To think that more than $60 million worth of prestige property has sold across six sales in Sydney, in just the last four weeks, shows an upward trend,” said Mr Lahood,

“Especially when you consider a number of these sales have come close to, or broken, suburb records.”
