Listings well down
The cobweb model in action.
New property listings are down 32 per cent in Sydney and 32 per cent in Melbourne respectively from a year earlier.
Brisbane's new listings are down 22 per cent, and in Perth the equivalent figure is 18 per cent.
Even the total of unsold inventory is now down by 10 per cent in Sydney, and 6 per cent in Perth.
