In the Midlands, agency group Goodchilds have joined. Managing Director David Warke said that they had been looking at offering an auction service for some time and that it was very important to join forces with a like-minded organisation where strength of brand could be maintained and built upon.
Network Auctions Managing Director Toby Limbrick believes that adding Goodchilds’ sixteen Midlands offices to the network gives them unrivalled coverage in this important central part of the country and combines the strengths of Goodchilds’ local network with their national auction coverage and London sale room.
In Bristol, Haigh & Sons has joined and owner Martin Haigh is looking forward to being able to add auctions to his established sales and lettings business.
Martin said:
“We feel that with auctions growing in popularity as a method of sale that the time is right for us to join Network Auctions.”
In Lincolnshire, Hill & Clark with offices in Boston, Spalding and Holbeach are the latest recruit.
Local Director Jill Kirby is delighted to be working with the Network Auctions team. She confirmed that being Network Auctions partners complements their established sales, lettings, block management and commercial activities and looks forward to a long and successful relationship.
Network Auctions Director and Auctioneers Guy Charrison said:
“The addition of Goodchilds, Haigh & Sons and Hill & Clark to our ranks is testament to the success of our partnership arrangement which allows local and regional firms to build on their existing operations and branding by adding a highly experienced and successful auction service with the strengths of a national operation and a London auction room.
Network Auctions next auction will be held at the Cumberland Hotel at Marble Arch on May 1st at 2pm.
