Gone are the days when auctions<\/a> were reserved for weekends.<\/p>\n

\n

Industry experts say an increasing number of Adelaide homeowners are taking their properties to auction on a weekday.<\/p>\n

It is a trend becoming more widely accepted by househunters too, with many finishing work early or using their lunch break to bid on their dream home.<\/p>\n

While Saturday remains the most popular, auctioneers maintain the day and time a property goes under the hammer doesn\u2019t impact its result.<\/p>\n

In fact, Ray White SA chief auctioneer John Morris said weekdays could be better.<\/p>\n

\u201cBetween 10am and 3pm on a Saturday the most auctions are called,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
