Rory Daly, auctioneer and one of the founders of SDL Property Auctions, sadly passed away on 20 May after a long battle with illness.
Daly had more than 30 years of experience as an auctioneer in the property sector, and was CEO of CPBigwood prior to its acquisition by the SDL Group in 2015. SDL Group then acquired Graham Penny Auctions the following year and created SDL Property Auctions.
During this time, Daly was known to be a champion of all things auctions, and of all people – in his own words: “Auctions and I suit each other. We’re both very similar – straightforward, no time-wasting, just honest and transparent.” SDL said his knowledge and passion for the sector would be greatly missed.
