Podcast: Auction - is the rollercoaster ride of 2023, set to continue into 2024?

To compliment the release of their Auction Market Outlook, George Walker and Richard Adamson look back over the results, trends and learnings from 2023 and chat about what opportunities may lie ahead in 2024.

Is it time to build a portfolio? What will prove most attractive to buyers? Will yields stabilise? What assets may provide capital growth?

Our experts discuss where they would choose to invest their own cash in their respective markets and whether they are optimistic of confidence improving further in the auction market in 2024.

The auction market is a barometer for much of the wider market and in 2023 our auction teams sold over 2,200 commercial, residential & mixed-use properties across the UK and raised £889m at an average success rate of 86%.
