Allsop Space was founded in 2011 to introduce large scale auctions to the Irish market as property prices plummeted and assets were seized from developers.
In all nine auctions it has held to date, from April 2011 to December 2012, over €122.4m has been realised from the sale of 777 lots. The auction has an overall success rate of 93% in terms of sales. For the first time all properties, as obliged by law, have carried details of the BER certificate. The auction will start at 9.30am.
