The build up to our 28th April auction was quieter than expected, a result of the two week half term holidays and many people jetting abroad to take advantage of the relaxation in Covid rules.  Despite lower numbers than usual attending the open block viewings, it was evident that more buyers were happy to watch our virtual viewings on the website and place their bids, either in the room or remotely by telephone, proxy and by internet.

February is normally the quietest sale of the auction catalogue but 2022 started with a bang and unusually high crowds attending the 24th February live auction filling the Racecourse venue to capacity.

December is always the busiest month for auctions across the country as traders clamber to secure projects before markets close in time for the Christmas holidays. 

A combination of half term holidays, glorious sunshine followed by heavy rain and delays to the easing of lockdown were all contributing factors to the performance of our 9th June auction. Despite this, we saw some record results and a very healthy £3,420,500 raised (73% success rate).

Auction Estates are delighted to announce the appointment of Emma Corden as an Auction Negotiator within their expanding team.
