BOUGHT* RANGE - $2,205,700 - $2,426,500

David Lack was optimistic on this windy winter morning with a good sized, chatty crowd in his midst and the property generating, what he described, as the highest number of inspections in recent years. Mr Lack opened on a vendor bid of $2,000,000 and received a genuine bid from the crowd for $2,050,000. After a long discussion with the vendor, Mr Lack re-appeared and offered a second vendor bid of $2,100,000. A second bidder gave an eleventh hour bid of $2,150,000 - the price at which the property was passed in. That bidder went inside with Mr Lack to negotiate. An auction with lots of people and good vibe, despite the results. Bought after for an undisclosed amount.
