The South African base of international online auctioneers, GoIndustry DoveBid (recognised internationally as Go-Dove), has appointed award-winning property professional, Kim Faclier, as MD of the company?s first online property auction division in Africa.
GoIndustry Plc is a listed company on the London Stock Exchange with 40 offices in 27 countries, and which operates via the company?s online global marketplace, www.Go-Dove.com. GoIndustry DoveBid SA (Pty) Limited represents the company on the African continent. Faclier, who will be based at Go-Dove SA?s head office in Cape Town, believes that online property auctions will become the way of the future for the industry internationally.
Says Faclier: ?The use of online is growing as vast numbers of companies turn to the internet for their business transactions. The fundamentals of how this online auction process will work is exactly the same as a traditional auction mechanism, but it opens the doors for buyers and sellers sitting anywhere in the country ? and in fact the world - to participate. Go-Dove?s webpage receives in excess of 30-million visitors per year.?
This is due to Go-Dove?s proprietary software platform, on which it has spent over 10 years and more than US$10-million to develop.
Says Faclier: ?I wasn?t entirely aware of the power and robust nature of the www.Go-Dove.com platform until I saw it in operation. Once buyers and sellers recognise the enormous benefits of the online platform, I firmly believe that these online property auctions will surpass the traditional auction method. This cutting-edge technology provides amazing transparency ? much needed in the auction industry.?
Faclier adds: ?Let?s not forget that live auctions here in South Africa have only really taken off over the last 10 years or so. Moving online is a natural progression; you only have to read about the phenomenal and explosive growth of sites such as Facebook, Amazon, E-Bay and Linked-in to realise that the world has adopted on-line transactions as the way forward.?
It?s not surprising that Faclier is keen to embrace the online environment. She is the current holder of the prestigious Women in Property Network Award ? a national award that recognises not only ethics, integrity and empowerment, but specialist knowledge in the field and which includes innovative thinking.
Says MD of GoIndustry DoveBid SA (Pty) Limited, John Cowing: ?Faclier is widely recognised among South Africa?s top property sales investment specialists, and commercial sales and leasing brokers. Her appointment will no doubt be exactly what Go-Dove requires to convince buyers and sellers that online property auctions will soon be as commonplace as internet banking has become.?
The new division is an exciting new venture for the entire Go-Dove group. The amalgamation of some of the world?s top auction houses, the company has been conducting auctions online worldwide since 2000, as one of the largest specialist plant and machinery valuation and disposal companies. Faclier?s division will be the first one in the international network to focus entirely on the online auction of retail, commercial, industrial and high-end residential property.
A member of a number of professional bodies including the South African Institute of Auctioneers, the Estate Agents Board of South Africa, the South African Property Owners? Association (SAPOA) and the National Auctioneers Association in the USA, Faclier will soon be travelling to the 62nd International Auctioneers Conference to be held in Orlando, USA, where she will represent the new division internationally for the first time.
Closer to home, www.Go-Dove.com?s first online South African property auction with Kim Faclier at the helm will close on Thursday, 25th August 2011. Properties that form part of this sale can be viewed online from a month prior to this date. ______________________________________________________________________________
