The Benefits

to buying & selling at auction

.01

Speed

All our auction properties are offered with a fixed timescale to exchange and complete, meaning you know your moving date from the outset.


.02

Security

By paying a reservation fee and/or a deposit to secure the property, the vendor stops all marketing and will not consider any other offers, this gives you the reassurance that you will not be gazumped.


.03

Transparency

Auctions are considered as a more transparent way to purchase a property, whether bidding online or at a live in-room auction, you can see the other bids and place your bid at a price you’re comfortable with, without dealing with the uncertainty and stress of a closed bidding war.


.04

Flexibility

You can bid in our online auctions 24/7, from any devise and anywhere in the Country, meaning you won’t miss out on the property you’re after.


.05

Mortgage

Buying via conditional auction offers a longer exchange and completion date than the more traditional unconditional auction route. This gives buyers the flexibility to consider applying for a mortgage, if they wish to do so. If this is the case, we strongly recommend that you arrange for an independent survey to be carried out to ensure the Bank/Building Society will lend against the property.


.06

Personal Service

Our auction experts are available to offer you all the help and guidance you need, to ensure you’re comfortable with buying at auction. Please give them a call if you have any questions and they’ll happily guide you through the process to ensure buying at auction is the best route for you.
