While there are little or no auctions being conducted over the break we will take the opportunity to run a series that looks at how auction is run, the role of both the auctioneer and the agent, bidding strategies and lots more.

The series will feature Phil Parker, Veronica Morgan and Matthew Hayson.

In this episode we discuss:

• Veronica – do you always try to buy before auction?
• Matt – how do you handle early low offers and what about higher than expected offers?
• Veronica – do early offers normally indicate a ‘premium’
• Matt – do you encourage buyers to make pre-auction offers
