There was a good turn out of potential buyers and some lively bidding at the first Ray White City Apartments auction since the Reserve Bank announced it was considering reducing the amount residential property investors can borrow to 60% of a property's valuation.
Of the eight apartments on offer, five were sold under the hammer and three were passed in for sale by negotiation.
Two of the five that were sold were in buildings with remediation issues, but that obviously didn't deter some bidders, who possibly saw an opportunity to buy at a lower price and benefit from a lift in equity once remediation work is completed, and both attracted multiple bids.
