West Yorkshire auction success
Auction House Leeds and West Yorkshire yesterday achieved a success rate of just under 70% with over £2,000,000 raised.
Notable results included a three bedroom semi-detached house in popular area of Dewsbury, in need of a complete overhaul, which achieved just over £100,000 from a guide of £60/70,000. Over 50 people were shown round the property and very aggressive bidding was seen in the room.
2 Lock side cottages needing refurbishment at Apperley Bridge were guided from £160,000 and went over the £200,000 barrier showing that there is a huge demand for properties with potential.
On a more modest note, a 1 bedroom flat at Helston Road LS10 sold for £26,000 from a guide of £15,000 to £20,000.
Over 30 lots have already been listed for auction at the end of November, and is expected to be their largest ever.... so watch this space!
