You have conducted the auction at the Caulfield Cup Calcutta in an exemplary fashion for many years. You extract a pool of approx. $40,000 with very entertaining remarks and accurate auctioneering. In the opinion of most people at the Calcutta you are the finest auctioneer we have ever heard and there are many real estate and country people who attend the auction.

I have had many phone calls and letters following the event from our guests stating they have never been to such an event where they were part of a worldwide auction bid. Everyone felt involved both on the floor and overseas.

Auction comes up trumps!

If there has been any doubt about whether a property should be auctioned, look no further than 3/22 Powlett Street, East Melbourne. Yes an apartment!
This older style, art deco style apartment which was auctioned by Jellis Craig’s, Nathan Waterson opened at 1.6m and saw four bidders take it to 2.65m.

With a state clearance rate of over 75% there were plenty of other examples where the final result was way above agent and vendor expectations. It shows that auction is doing its job.
