Frequently asked questions
Selling at auction offers greater certainty and speed compared with a traditional private sale. Once the hammer falls, the buyer is legally committed, reducing the risk of fall-throughs or prolonged negotiations. Auctions also create competitive tension, which can help achieve a strong price within a specific timeframe, making them particularly well suited to sellers who value clarity and momentum.
A wide range of properties perform well at auction, including investment properties, tenanted homes, homes needing refurbishment, and assets with unusual characteristics or complex legal titles. Auctions can also be effective for properties where timing is important, such as probate sales or portfolio disposals, as they attract motivated buyers who are prepared to proceed quickly.
The guide price is the publicly advertised price intended to generate interest and indicate the level at which bidding may start. The reserve price is the confidential minimum price the seller is willing to accept. The property will not be sold unless bidding meets or exceeds the reserve, which is agreed in advance between the seller and the auctioneer.
Costs typically include the auctioneerās fee, marketing, and the preparation of a legal pack by the sellerās solicitor. These costs vary depending on the property, the auction format, and the amount of marketing required. Your auction specialist will outline the full cost structure from the start, ensuring transparency before the property is entered into the catalogue.
Completion usually happen within a fixed timeframe after the auction, often around 20 working days for traditional auctions. This timetable is agreed in advance and forms part of the auction contract, giving both parties clarity from the point of sale.
Viewings are arranged and managed ahead of the auction, either through open viewing days or by appointment. These are coordinated by the auction team or appointed agents, ensuring prospective buyers have the opportunity to inspect the property before bidding.
