George Walker, Partner and Auctioneer, Allsop said: “This catalogue offers a wider range of investments across all sectors, than we have offered for some time. There are good examples of quality offices, industrial, mixed use and a range of alternative assets from inside the M25 to right across the UK. The catalogue also features a high number of convenience stores, which is popular and familiar stock among private investors.
“With a strong end to last year we look forward to a good start to 2020.”
