SENIOR AUCTIONEER OF THE YEAR HAS CALL REIV Master Auctioneer and four-time winner of the Senior Auctioneering competition, Adrian Butera, is set to pass the hammer for this year’s Good Friday Appeal Charity Home auction after 13 years of setting auction records for the important cause. Commencing in 2021, the top job will be manned by the winner of REIV’s annual Senior Auctioneering competition, with 2020 winner, Andy Reid stepping up to the plate on Friday 2 April. On the block this year is the beautiful Henley Vogue 34 home at Villawood Properties’ Rathdowne estate in Wollert. The 2021 Charity House Auction marks 28 years donating homes and raising over $16 million or for the Good Friday Appeal to date. Gil King, REIV CEO, said it is a pleasure to work with Henley and Villawood to facilitate the no-reserve auction. “Some of the very best Victorian auctioneers have been discovered through REIV’s competition,” Mr King said. “We’re thrilled to be able to put forward Victoria’s top talent to facilitate the Good Friday Appeal’s Charity House Auction each year”, he said. Following the trend of hybrid auctions to accommodate Covid-19 restrictions, the auction will be streamed live through Anywhere Auctions, allowing bidders from across the country to throw their hat in the ring. “We’re expecting a record audience this Good Friday. It’s set to be the biggest public auction since Covid-19 restricted crowd numbers across the state,” Mr King said. “It’s a great opportunity for house hunters to secure a slice in the Melbourne property market with the knowledge that their purchase will support the Royal Children’s Hospital”, he said. ● berwicknews.starcommunity.com.au
