A property agency hailed its first three-day auction of the year a success after more than 80% of the lots on offer were sold.
Eddisons sold 108 of the 133 lots to generate total proceeds of £11.24m.
Tony Webber, of Eddisons, said: ‘This was an excellent start to our 2014 auction campaign and continues the positive trend we saw towards the end of last year.
“Demand was high for lots in all categories, which meant that the bidding was competitive. This helped drive prices up and reflected the positive market sentiment.”
Among the lots attracting interest was a part-let retail and office building in Cleckheaton, producing rental income of £13,500 per annum, which sold for £115,000.
Also in Cleckheaton, a vacant retail unit and a tenanted three bedroom house producing annual rent of £3,744 sold for £75,000, off a guide of £60,000 plus.
Elsewhere, a parcel of land to the north of Bradley Road in Huddersfield sold for £21,000, more than four times the guide price of £5,000 plus.
