Foreman Dan\u00a0Reilly has shared his thoughts on the disastrous results of The Block auction during Sunday’s tense finale.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Only\u00a0three of the five homes sold to successful bidders – with two failing to sell, and two more yielding a low payday for the contestants.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The renovation show’s stern foreman replied to comments on his Instagram on Sunday night, and did not pull any punches.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘Who did the reserve prices?’ asked one incredulous fan in Dan’s comments section.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dan replied coolly: ‘Someone who hopefully won’t be doing it again.’<\/p>\n

Another fan questioned: ‘Aren’t you upset that two houses have not won any money?\u00a0 I’ve been screaming at the TV! The reserves are just too high!’\u00a0<\/p>\n

Foreman Dan Reilly (pictured) has shared his thoughts on the disastrous results of The Block auction during Sunday’s tense finale<\/p>\n

Dan was quick to write: ‘I am gutted for them.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

A solid field of bidders – including series veteran Danny Wallis – turned out to the rural Victorian town of Daylesford on Saturday, the site of the 2025 iteration of the Channel Nine series.<\/p>\n

In a shock result, Western Australian couple Britt and Taz took out the top sale of the day – offloading their stylish House 3 for an impressive $3.41 million.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With a reserve of $2.99 million, the fan favourites walked away $420,000 richer – adding to that, a $100,000 bonus prize, netting them a total $520,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But it all went downhill from there.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fellow renovators Robby and Mat’s South Australian property fetched $3.099million, netting the best mates a meagre\u00a0$109,999 profit.<\/p>\n

The lads were bitterly disappointed with the winning amount, which they will have to split between them.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Sonny and Alicia sold their home for $3.06 million – $120,000 above their $2.94 million reserve.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"'Who <\/p>\n

‘Who did the reserve prices?’ asked one incredulous fan in Dan’s comments section. Dan replied coolly: ‘Someone who hopefully won’t be doing it again’<\/p>\n

\"Another <\/p>\n

Another fan questioned: ‘Aren’t you upset that two houses have not won any money? I’ve been screaming at the TV! The reserves are just too high!’\u00a0Dan answered: ‘I am gutted for them’<\/p>\n

Despite the small yield, the couple were happy with the result.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But not everyone walked away with a sale, as both Emma and Ben, and Han and Can, failed to attract enough interest to get their properties over the line.<\/p>\n

In heartbreaking scenes, Emma and Ben’s home was passed in after bidding stalled at their $2.99million reserve – and even a $3.10 million bid failed to help it generate interest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Han and Can’s home also failed to sell, the ladies\u00a0left facing the crushing reality that they were walking away from the show without having made a penny.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The pair admitted to feeling ‘physically sick’ as their dreams were dashed.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

There were fears of an auction disaster in the lead-up to the big day, with the eye-watering price guides on the Daylesford homes raising some eyebrows.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, it was revealed that the teams behind the five properties were hoping to fetch $3 million to $3.3 million for their creations.<\/p>\n

However, the insanely high price guide did not match up with the median house prices in the Victorian town, where homes are four times cheaper.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to PropTrack data recorded in July, an average home in Daylesford costs around $820,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n
