Sign of the times as 800 view auction of apartments online

Ozier Park View Apartments, Poleberry, Waterford, where six top floor units were sold by Offr online auction for €580,000 this week.

Some 800 people gathered to watch a Waterford property investment auction on Tuesday — but they did it virtually, online, where six bidders participated. The successful sale done via the Offr online platform by Sherry FitzGerald John Rohan concluded at 3pm, an hour before the Government announced tighter restrictions on social mobility, and further economic support during the Covid-19 crisis.
