An 18-month investigation by the Herald into rampant underquoting in Sydney’s real estate market has confirmed what everybody, except officialdom, knows: Sydney is the national capital of underquoting.
Our three-day series, starting on Saturday, analyses data from more than 36,000 auction campaigns in Sydney and Melbourne and uncovered extraordinary levels of misinformation and欺骗买家。 srcset =“ https://static.ffx.io/images/qunzoom_0.136%2c$ multiply_0.9788%2c$ ratio_1.5%2C$ WIDT H_756％2C $ x_0％2C $ y_0/t_crop_custom/q_86％2CF_AUTO/38B7A9B3B24E14E14E143652453781E71D21D21FA5555555ADB， https://static.ffx.io/images/qunzoom_0.136%2c$ multiply_1.9577%2c$ ratio_1.5%2C$ WIDTH_75 6％2C $ x_0％2C $ y_0/t_crop_custom/q_62％2CF_AUTO/38B7A9B3B24E14E14E63652453781E71D221FA555555555ADB 2x“高度=“ 494”宽度=“ 740”/> Our study analyses data from more than 36,000 auction campaigns.Credit: Flavio Brancaleone
It’s worst in Sydney, with 48 per cent of 10,772 properties sold from January 2024 to last Junef的价格高于报价的价格超过10％。其中，有16％的人占据指南以上20％或更多。
我们的调查还显示了新南威尔士州买家面临的明显问题：对规则的含义缺乏明确的问题 - 房地产行业避开了这一合理的理由，即当给定代价时，这是10％的最低限度的最低限度。但是，公众不了解这一点，甚至允许这样的利润，引用仍然是不受限制的自由。同时，买家浪费时间，金钱和梦想在他们支付建筑物和害虫检查以期希望获得梦想中的房屋时，实际上他们没有希望。
在接下来的几天中，我们的调查还将跟踪悉尼特工，这些代理商的代理商也将涉足最容易属于房地产经纪人的Suburbs Priect和Suberbs最容易销售的代理商。与公寓相比，房屋的频率更高，而且数量更大，在召集读者分享其拍卖经验后，调查记者被两个城市的7000多个回应所淹没。最常见的问题是对代理商的挫败感及其定价的橡胶方法。 Most complaints came from NSW.
A decade ago, outrage over a fourfold increase in complaints about underquoting prompted the then Coalition government to introduce rules that banned open-ended guides and instead allow estimated sale prices with a 10 per cent range.
But there is little disincentive for the industry to get its house in order to stop underquoting as a carrot to buyers: in the two years to June 2025,新南威尔士州公平交易确定了284次违反违规行为，并罚款137个代理商2200美元。那里的痛苦很小 - 如今，代理商在平均悉尼房屋出售中获得了20,000至40,000美元的佣金。
