You couldn’t be in safer hands when it comes to choosing this auctioneer to conduct the sale of your property. Frank Colicchia is GMP’s highly qualified and highly sought-after auctioneer.

"As an Auctioneer it’s my job to ensure your property is sold to the highest bidder. Auctioneers represent sellers but should also be able to work with buyers".
Because knowledge of the value of your home is important to any successful auctioneer, Frank’s ability to speak clearly and honestly with prospective buyers and sellers, and his experienced selling skills are essential advantages, particularly for those auctioneers who intend to preside over real-estate auctions.
Auctioneering is a fast-paced, unpredictable career that can bring great rewards to those who show ability in all these areas. "Over the past 30 plus years, I’ve conducted many land subdivision auctions in large marquees, all types of home auctions in front yards, back yards, garages and of course on the footpaths".
To be a successful auctioneer, you must have some understanding of the psychology of the auction process.
Some auctions take place under the auspices of the government and lending institutions, so an understanding of regulations and the ability to work with these agencies is important.
An auctioneer faces the crowd and introduces the event, reads and explains the contract of sale and then calls out the bids. While few use public address systems, bid calling over the course of the day’s auctions day still puts considerable strain on the voice.
A good Auctioneer is not just an adept practitioner of kerbside banter. He or she must have the highest integrity, a sense of humour, a mathematical brain, and most importantly, supremely confident negotiation skills in the event that the property passes in.
"There has been an improvement in the area of ethics in the auction industry, and I am very positive about the future of real estate auctioneering". Frank is a thorough professional, highly experienced and ethical Auctioneer that always guarantees the Vendors the best possible results.
