SDL Graham Penny, part of SDL Auctions one of the UK’s largest auction networks, held a successful second Nottingham auction last month raising more than £2.8m in sales for vendor clients.

The auction, on Thursday 16th March at Nottingham Racecourse, saw a busy auction room of bidders take part in some exciting and competitive bidding which resulted in more than 30 lots selling under the hammer including residential and investment properties, commercial properties, development sites, building plots and land.

Andrew Parker, auctioneer and managing director, commented: “Our auction room last week had a real air of excitement in it. There were hundreds of bidders hoping to see the gavel fall on their last bid and several vendors eagerly anticipating a good sale price on their properties.”

Amongst the properties selling well in the auction room were:
