Records broken at Christies Network Auctions December sale

Auctioneer Guy Charrison’s gavel was glowing red hot at the Christies Network Auctions London auction on 10th December as lot after lot was successfully sold.

In total 93% of lots offered in the catalogue were sold, the best result of 2015 and the second best result in Christies Network Auctions history.

There were also some exceptional results achieved.

Lot 26 - a bungalow in Christchurch in Dorset sold at £585,000, some £205,000 over the guide price.

Lot 22 – a bungalow in Rochford in Essex achieved £241,000, some £31,000 over the guide price

Lot 13 – a studio flat in Holloway in London N7 sold at £175,000, some £35,000 over the guide price

There were also a number of successful sales of plots of speculative land being sold without reserve, proving that properties of all size, shape and value can be successfully sold at auction.

Christies Network Auctions have their December Birmingham sale in conjunction with Pennycuick Collins on December 16th where a further twenty one lots will go under the gavel.

Jeremy Richardson said: “With sales well in excess of £30 million pounds in 2015, it has been a great year for Christies Network Auctions and we were also voted auction house of the year by NAVA, the National Association of Valuers and Auctioneers.”

There are eleven auctions planned for 2016 (six in London and five in Birmingham) with lots now being taken for inclusion for the sale on 25th February.
