James Emson, managing director, said: “At the start of 2025 many people predicted a tough year in the property market, but, thankfully, this has not been quite the case from our perspective.
“Our four auctions this year have seen some remarkable interest, excellent levels of legal pack requests and positive bidding, with many lots far exceeding the expectations of sellers – and us as auctioneers.
“These dynamics were reflected in the June auction, which raised £22m-plus for private, corporate and public body clients. Buyers set their sights on the long-term.”
