AT the second time of asking, units at Tralee Shopping Centre which went unsold at an auction in February, went under the hammer again today and this time a buyer was found.

The ten units with a reserve price of between €125,000-€175,000 were sold at the Allsop Auction in the RDS Dublin for a price of €205,000.

This is a drastic comedown on the Allsop auction in February, when nine units (1, 6, 8, 10, 10a, 12, 14, 20 and 20a) in the same building went unsold at a reserve price of between €475,000-€525,000.

1, 1A, 6-8, 10, 10A–12A, 12-14, 20, 20A, 20B and 20C were collectively offered as one lot.

Another Tralee property was also auctioned off at the Residential Auction on April 21 in the RDS.

51 Fountain Court, Ballinorig, Tralee, had a reserve not to exceed €40,000 and it was sold for that price.

The property was described as a semi-detached three bedroom house, two storey beneath a pitched roof.
