South Australian pastoral property auctions

Overview

The Reynolds family is auctioning the Mannawarra and Upalinna sheep stations, located east of the Flinders Ranges in South Australia, on October 14. The combined 66,800-hectare properties include sheep, equipment, and income streams from tourism, wild goat harvesting, and sheep. Agents have described the current period as a “once-in-a-generation” season for outback pastoral properties.

However, heavy rainfall in the Australian outback has begun to hinder the sales and leasing process. While the rain has replenished watercourses and stock feed, a 170mm rainfall event in early August has made tracks inaccessible for prospective buyers. Lead agent Peter Marschall noted that property inspections have required delays to allow for track reinstatement. Similar logistical challenges regarding access have been reported for those interested in leasing the Mooleulooloo and Strathearn stations near Broken Hill.
