“Crazy” Auckland auctions as eight properties attract 210 bids June 17, 2021 Ray White New Zealand

Ray White Manukau, Manurewa, Mangere, and Mangere Bridge Principal Tom Rawson dubbed Tuesday night’s in-room auctions as “crazy” as all eight properties sold under the hammer for a total combined value of more than $12.7 million.

It is the second week in a row the suite of offices has sold all their properties on auction day – taking their gavel slamming streak to 15 properties in a row for their valued clients.

The highest sale of the night and absolute stand-out auction belonged to Ray White Manukau Salesperson Monika Maynard as 27 Ranfurly Road (above) in Alfriston sold for $2,575,000 – more than double the CV – with the property attracting a whopping 30 registered buyers.

“We had 210 individual bids on the night with an average sale price of $1,472,750 across eight South Auckland properties – it was just crazy,” Mr Rawson said.

“We’re seriously going to have to look for larger premises if our auctions continue to be this well attended – the room was jam-packed (below) with barely any standing room left.

“Observing from the front of the room, I noticed multiple buyers bid on one property, miss out on that one and then have a crack at the following properties.
