Auction House Sussex & Hampshire

Earlier this year, the combined knowledge of Austin Gray and Auction House Sussex & Hampshire led to the successful sale of two probate properties within the same estate, offered simultaneously at auction.

10 Malling Street, Lewes - a substantial 5 bedroom townhouse in the historic town of Lewes; guided at £435,000 and achieving £700,000 at the fall of the gavel, reflecting just how popular the lot was with interest from over 40 potental purchasers.

Bramber House, Eastbourne - a 2 bedroom flat with a short 27 year lease; guided at £40,000 and achieving £92,000 at our livestream auction. 

Achieving strong sales results for the Estate Executors/Beneficiaries ands new beginnings for both properties, which were brought to the market for the first time in over 30 years!

Working with us provides you with:-

  • Auction Valuations
  • RICS Red Book - Probate Valuations for Inheritance Tax Purposes
