Road Trips and Picnics: A Day in the Life of World-Class Land Auctioneers

As the first day of autumn approaches, the world of land auctions is buzzing with activity. At World of Auctions and Palace Auctions, we’re celebrating a series of successful deals and property inspections that showcase our expertise in “land for sale by auction” and “investment parcels of land sold by auction”.

On August 22nd, our team embarked on a whirlwind road trip that perfectly illustrates the diverse and exciting nature of our work. Let’s take you through our journey, complete with picnics and property viewings!

1. Epping Farm: A £974,000 Success Story

Our day began with a visit to Epping Farm on Hobbs Cross Road, Epping. This wasn’t just any property viewing; it was just the start of two weeks of hard work. We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve successfully brokered the sale of Epping Farm to London investors for a total price of £974,000, including the buyer’s premium.

This sale exemplifies our ability to connect prime agricultural land with savvy investors, showcasing the potential of land auctions as a means of property acquisition.

As we celebrated with a cup of tea and marshmallow cake, we couldn’t help but feel proud of our team’s dedication to achieving the best possible outcomes for both buyers and sellers.

2. Beech Farm Road: International Connections

Our next stop took us to Beech Farm Road in Warlingham, where we conducted a land inspection on behalf of Saudi Arabian investors. This visit highlights the global reach of World of Auctions and Palace Auctions, as we increasingly work with international clients seeking to invest in UK land.

Despite being caught in a sudden 30-minute downpour that felt more like a desert storm, our team persevered. This dedication to thorough inspections, regardless of weather conditions, is what sets us apart in the competitive world of land auctions.

3. Marlow: Valuation with a View

Our final destination was a parcel of land near the airport in Marlow. Here, we conducted a valuation for a Dubai-based seller, further emphasizing our worldwide network of clients. The weather cleared up beautifully, allowing us to deploy our drone for a comprehensive aerial survey of the property.

This valuation is a crucial step in preparing the land for its upcoming market debut. Our expertise in accurately assessing land value ensures that both buyers and sellers can enter the auction process with confidence, knowing they’re working with true market values.
