Overview
- Auctions are scheduled for Saturday in Daylesford, with the finale to air Sunday at 7:00pm on Nine.
- All five homes carry price guides of $3–$3.3 million, about $1 million higher than last year’s Phillip Island auction.
- Executive producer Julian Cress says achieving sales on all five in one day is a 50% proposition and estimates at least 10 viable bidders are needed.
- Danny Wallis is registered to bid and buyer’s advocate Frank Valentic has clients inspecting, while Adrian Portelli is not expected to purchase this season.
- Domain reports Daylesford house prices are down 6.3% year on year, and unnamed insiders report buyer hesitation along with talk of potential reserve reductions and more modest profits for contestants.
