Richard Adamson and George Walker, Allsop Auctioneers are joined by Vijay Parikh, Managing Partner of Harold Benjamin and Seb Verity, Allsop’s Head of Research in a four way conversation.

Seb Verity leads on many points with his appetite for data analysis and throws some light on some of the not so obvious forces driving both markets and how things might develop from here.

Allsop has transacted over £150m in the last month across all sectors and lot sizes so there is plenty to talk about,
