Matt Hilton, auctioneer at the firm, said: "The number of properties being sold at auction nationally increased in 2009 as both buyers and sellers could see the benefit of the method of sale. It's quick, simple and in, my experience, very effective.
"In the last 12 months, there has definitely been an improvement in the market, the number of enquiries was markedly up for our last sale. We have five planned sales for 2010 and expect big interest on 16 February."
The auction will take place on 16 February 2010 at Nottingham Belfry Hotel, Mellors Way, Nottingham at 2.30pm.
