After a well-earned break the auction team at DNG Maxwell Heaslip & Leonard are this week gearing up to launch their September auctions, the penultimate event in their auction diary for 2015. Following the success of its June and July auctions, the team at the local leading agent are excited about what again looks to be an interesting mix of properties with something to interest owner occupiers, first time buyers, and investors, both residential and commercial.
“Demand is high for properties, we have more demand than supply at the moment," said James Heaslip MIPAV MCEI. "There is a huge shortage of rental properties in Galway at the moment so it’s a great opportunity for investors to acquire some really good investment properties.”
As usual the auction team will hold open viewings for the next four weeks in the lead up to the auction. Mr Heaslip continued: “We start our blitz of advertising and open viewings this week with a four week intense campaign. Our open viewings take place on Wednesdays and Saturdays when people can come at their leisure to inspect the properties.”
