Nottingham based ALB who specialise in property investment and regeneration have announced their acquisition of the former Carlton Police Station from the Nottingham Police Authority with plans for a multi-million pound conversion to commence later this year.

The new year kicked off with a lively auction with a broad range of properties offered across the UK.

Our 14th December auction raised £3,158,299 with an 87% success rate wrapping up the end to a highly successful first year trading with £18.3 million transacted.

Despite being relative newcomers to the market, Auction Estates in only their 5th sale have raised a record £3,730,500 at their sale on 27th September with a 74% success rate. All eyes are now focused on this small dedicated team of Auction experts as they seek to best this for their next sale on 14th December.

Auction Estates posted another impressive set of results at their 4th sale on 20th July raising £3,042,500 with a 76% success rate.

The company, which was set up by former Savills auction head Paul Giles, offered a diverse catalogue of residential and commercial lots across the UK with properties as far afield as Paisley, Dunoon & Oban in Scotland and Abergele, Mold & Llangefni in Wales, and numerous locations across the UK.
