Harcourts had a massive week in their auction rooms around the country last week with 140 residential properties offered for sale.
The auctions were particularly big in Hamilton and Christchurch, where a wide variety of homes went under the hammer.
In Auckland nothing sold for less than $500,000 and the most expensive home was a Remuera house that sold for $1.93 million.
In Hamilton prices started at $308,000 for a house in Enderley, in Rotorua prices started at $94,000 and in Tauranga prices started at $441,000 for a house in Greerton.
In The South Island a house in the Christchurch suburb of Edgeware sold for $227,000 while a Fendalton house achieved the highest price of $1.61 million and in Blenheim prices ranged from $363,000 to $402,500.

Hi Greg
Any way of accessing this info for other areas? Ie Dunedin and Queenstown
Dunedin is lucky to have one auction in any given week! Mainly deadline sales down here.
Still missing Grenadier auctions in Chch. The number this week in Chch is only normal, it's just that not all franchises have been reporting their results every week.
Of note the $1.61 m sales of Greystones "as is where is" was a bargain. GV was $3.6m and house had repairable damage. I should have got myself more organised! Bank lending is a bit iffy on these though.
The harcourts north shore auctions results are not included here. Is it deliberate or any other reason?
