New record for Bond Wolfe
Bond Wolfe Auctions has set a new company record for the most lots offered in a day in its May live-streamed event.
The auctions saw 201 lots sold from the 220 offered, representing a success rate of 92 per cent and raising over £23.5 million in sales.
The build up to the auction reflected the increasing regional, national and global demand for property with 797,107 website page views, 162,792 video tours and 68,228 legal packs downloaded.
Gurpreet Bassi, chief executive of Bond Wolfe Auctions, said: “The easing of some lockdown restrictions has helped and the marketing period up to the auction remained as busy as ever.”
In a day of strong results, standout lots included (above) a three-bedroom, mid-terraced house on Grosvenor Road in, Birmingham, sold for £336,000 from a guide price of £100,000+.
