All About Auctions is a commercial auction house with sites in Auckland and Northland.
Our goal is to achieve the best possible outcomes for both buyers and sellers of surplus goods, while maintaining high standards of professionalism and integrity. We believe the auction process should be straightforward, efficient and well managed, with clear communication at every stage. Our efficiency is a key point of difference.
Our team brings extensive knowledge and experience across commercial auctions and the sale of surplus assets. With teams based in Auckland and Northland, we are able to manage auctions and asset sales across New Zealand. Our experience extends from Kaitaia to Invercargill and many places in between, giving us the capability to take on commercial projects of all sizes, wherever they are located.
We also offer a complete cash buy-out service for businesses looking for a direct sale of their assets, as well as professional valuation services for businesses, insolvency practitioners, insurers and private vendors.
We are committed to providing buyers with a professional auction experience and independent information to help them make informed purchasing decisions.
