Thinking of selling at an auction?
Please read this page first!

Whenever people talk about ‘cheap’ property the word ‘auction’ comes up.

Property auctions have become increasingly popular over the past few years and will continue to do so for years to come where people are short of money and looking for a bargain.

Sellers who want a quick sale may put their property through an auction with an understanding they will achieve a quick sale but this is not always the case.

This is a very risky process, auctioneers need many weeks in advance before they even consider selling your property at an upcoming auction.

Auctioneers need time to take photos, advertise the property, arrange viewings and arrange legal packs, the whole process up to sale can take well over 2 months, as the buyer will need time to complete the purchase and there’s no guarantee that your property will even sell.

You will need to pay for all these services even if your property doesn’t sell. When properties at auction do sell they sell way below the properties value. On average only 66% of properties actually sell, therefore 1 in 3 people will fail to sell their property and the numbers of sales at auctions are falling.

The real winners at auctions are the auctioneers themselves as they get a big fat commission every time a property is sold, its just a numbers game to them. Secondly the buyers are next inline to benefit as they get a huge discount off a property at no cost to them. This leaves the seller in a situation where they pay money to the auctioneers hoping to sell their property with no guarantee.
