Buxton Box Hill has sold many properties in Box Hill North in particular, so knows the area. Prior to our auction, we attended six auctions with other agency's auctioneers and one with Calvin. We were impressed - his auction methodology is one of patience. Whereas other auctioneers, trying to regenerate some enthusiasm among the bidders when the bids are slowing down, would do the "going once, twice, three times" routine, Calvin would simply continue to describe the virtues of our property and how good life would be living there. Sure enough, the bidding would pick up again. At the start of the bidding process, he put his gavel down on the front veranda and he didn't pick it up until he sensed the bidding was done and he needed to use it.
