the Auctioneer

Bruce has been involved with auctions since 1990 and is a fully qualified Associate of the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand, and a long time member of the Auctioneers Association of NZ.

the power of auction

Our superior Auction Plan has continual success and has contributed to many happy buyers and sellers.

General public perception, often influenced by over-sensational media coverage, has increased our desire to have our clients completely informed of the processes involved from the outset. Unscrupulous practices in some industry sectors must not be allowed to taint an excellent selling/buying medium.

Westside Real Estate's auction programme is designed to maximise the property exposure. In the current difficult economic conditions, it is essential to ensure that your property stands out in the marketplace. High profile marketing guarantees maximum exposure and ensures sellers of that all important competitive edge.
