James Heaslip, who heads the auction team, said: “We have a nice mix of quality properties coming to the market and there is some fantastic value on offer. The whole team has been working hard to have the properties ready for the open viewings and we’ve already had large numbers through each property."
As usual, the city centre based agent is bringing a varied mix of properties to the auction room and the team are very confident that there is something to suit all buyers. “We believe that this auction has a huge amount of value on display, with every lot being priced very keenly," Heaslip added.
