Some houses in Sydney and Melbourne are easy to sell. Other houses are hard to sell.

悉尼與墨爾本的部分房屋很容易出售，而其他房屋則較難出售。

In Sydney, some houses sold well. A house in Waverton sold for $3.95 million. This is more than the owner wanted. A house in Roseville sold for $2.5 million. This is less than the owner wanted because banks now charge more money for loans.

在悉尼，部分房屋銷售情況良好。Waverton 的一間房屋以 395 萬美元成交，高於業主預期。Roseville 的一間房屋則以 250 萬美元成交，低於業主預期，因為銀行現在提高了貸款利息。

In Melbourne, the market is different. One house in Carlton North sold for a very high price. But a house in West Footscray did not sell. No one wanted to buy it at the auction.

在墨爾本，市場情況有所不同。Carlton North 的一間房屋成交價非常高，但 West Footscray 的一間房屋則未能售出，在拍賣會上沒有人願意購買。

Agents in Melbourne say the market is very bad. It is the worst time since 1989. Now, agents must work harder to find buyers.

墨爾本的代理表示市場狀況非常糟糕，是自 1989 年以來最差的時期。現在，代理必須更加努力才能找到買家。

Rich people still buy expensive houses. But other houses are hard to sell now.

富人仍然會購買昂貴的房屋，但其他房屋現在很難出售。
