DNG Maxwell Heaslip & Leonard sizzling summer auction draws close

Well in the throes of open viewings, contract requests, and enquiries regarding auction day, the offices of one of Galway's leading local agents, DNG Maxwell Heaslip & Leonard, are a hive of activity in preparation for what promises to be an exciting and busy auction day. This weekend will see the final Saturday of open viewings on properties, rounding up what has been a busy auction run for the DNG team.

“This Saturday, July 22, will be the final Saturday of open viewings so it’s usually a busy one,” said Alan Maxwell, MRICS, MSCSI, "although we will continue to view the properties on Wednesdays open viewing schedule and by appointment.”

He added: “It’s not unusual for people to see the properties for the first time auction week, however usually the emphasis shifts to contracts at this time. We provide an online data room where prospective purchasers can download the legal packs for each property. Purchasers can request access to the data room by logging onto dnggalway.ie/auction and clicking on the ‘legal documents’ button located on the property they are interested in. Our auction team are busy responding to all document requests this week."

James Heaslip, MIPAV, MCEI, who heads the DNG auction team, is also excited about the upcoming auction. “Auction week always creates a great sense of anticipation in the office," he said. "We put a lot of work into the preparations for the day in order to ensure we get the results our clients want and expect.”

And the hard work certainly seems to pay off – the company’s success rate from auctions currently runs at 92 per cent, something the whole team is very proud of according to Heaslip. “We’re very proud of our success rate on the auction floor – we work really hard for every auction and it’s great to see all this hard work come together on auction day.”

Heaslip is keen to stress that the companys’ success is ultimately down to teamwork: “We put a lot of resources into our auctions and it pays off – our clients are very happy and we all get a sense of achievement at the end of a long but successful day.” With more than 30 lots coming to the auction floor, properties include both commercial and residential units and are dispersed throughout Galway city and county, Roscommon, Mayo, and Clare.
