Wright Marshall wins Auction House Cheshire franchise
Cheshire estate agent Wright Marshall has successfully secured the franchise to operate Auction House Cheshire.
The Cheshire franchise will work as part of the residential property auction house group, and comes under Wright Marshall’s control ahead of their first auction in May.
The team will auction a wide range of residential, commercial and agricultural lots, as well as building plots, conversions, land and investments which can be sold to private individuals as well as companies and professionals.
The Auction House Cheshire reach extends across the whole of the county, as well as parts of North Wales.
Providing the tradition and proven method of open house viewings, Auction House Cheshire will give buyers more time to look around over the five-week marketing period before the lots are offered for sale under the hammer.
Looking to run an average of seven to nine larger combined auctions per year, Wright Marshall will be hosting their Auction House Cheshire sales at The Macdonald Portal Golf Club in Tarporley.
The business is headed up by valuer and estate agent Mark Egerton. He will have overall responsibility for all aspects of property auctions and has over 20 years’ experience in all property disciplines.
Egerton most recently managed the Chester Wright Marshall office within his 10 years with the company.
He will be supported by Melissa Furber as Auction House Cheshire assistant manager and co-ordinator, who has spent more than seven years working at Wright Marshall’s Whitchurch office.
Egerton said: “We are delighted and excited to have secured the Cheshire Auction House franchise.
“We have always been proficient in selling homes under the hammer, but this will enable us to operate a standalone auction branch, holding regular larger combined sales at a fixed venue – something we feel will be extremely beneficial to our clients.”
Established for more than 150 years, Wright Marshall is an practice of land and estate agents, valuers and chartered surveyors with a network of eight offices throughout Cheshire, North Shropshire and South Manchester.
