Sheffield property up for auction for £1000
The two-storey property, which is boarded up at the front and has exposed brickwork along the side exterior wall, lacks many of the comforts of home.But, according to Auction House South Yorkshire, the house is "conveniently located, a stone's throw from Meadowhall, Northern General Hospital, various retail parks, and great transport links including easy access to M1".The property, just off Paige Hall Road, is also very close to Fir Vale Secondary School.The latest figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) indicate that the average house price in Sheffield was £220,000 in April 2025 compared to a UK average of £265,000 in the same period.According to The Move Market website, the average house price on Hinde Street in Sheffield is £95,000.
Mr Mahroof, who has more than 30 years' experience in the industry said despite the low price, which may shock those without knowledge of the property market and auctions, the starting sum was not that unusual.He added "I've seen properties advertised for a pound and some with a nil reserve though they always sell for a lot more."Some pieces of land that you think will never sell, landlocked from every side and people still buy them. "People buy toilets, pumping stations, there's a market for everything in my experience of auctioneering."Interested parties are able to bid via the Auction House South Yorkshire from Monday at 13:00 BST for about 24 hours.

EU's von der Leyen: trade deal delivers certainty in uncertain times
PRESTWICK, Scotland, July 27 (Reuters) - European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Sunday said a U.S. baseline tariff rate of 15% on imported EU goods would apply to cars, semiconductors and pharmaceutical goods. She also said that a zero-for-zero tariff rate had been agreed for certain strategic products, including aircraft and aircraft parts, certain chemicals, and certain generic drugs. No decision had been taken on a rate for wine and spirits, she added. "Today's deal creates certainty in uncertain times, delivers stability and predictability," von der Leyen told reporters before leaving Scotland.

US expects to result of probe into chip imports in two weeks
TURNBERRY, Scotland, July 27 (Reuters) - The Trump administration will announce the result of a national security probe into imports of semiconductors in two weeks, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said on Sunday, without providing details. Lutnick told reporters after a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen that the investigation - which is expected to result in tariffs on chips imports - was one of the "key reasons" the EU sought to negotiate a broader trade agreement that would "resolve all things at one time." Trump said many companies would be investing in semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, including some from Taiwan and other places, to avoid getting hit by new tariffs.
