There's been plenty of talk of a housing decline, but you'd be forgiven for thinking otherwise judging by these sales.
The most expensive auctions from last weekend have been revealed by APM PriceFinder, with a home in Sydney's Longueville recording the highest sale price.
The four-bedroom, architect-designed home with waterfront views to Tambourine Bay and an Italian marble spa suite fetched an eye-watering $4,255,000 at auction.
That compares to a current median house price of $2.98 million for the suburb, according to CoreLogic RP Data.
