- Why Choose Us
Why Sell Through Auction?
Selling your property by auction offers a faster, more secure, and cost-effective way to move — giving you greater control and peace of mind throughout the fully transparent process.
A Committed Buyer
Once you accept an offer, the buyer is required to pay a non-refundable reservation fee, making them financially committed to completing the purchase at the agreed price. This significantly reduces the risk of fall-throughs and gives you greater certainty of sale. The buyer’s fees also cover the full marketing and advertising of your property at no cost to you, this could also include the auction pack.
Complete Transparency
All bids are displayed live on our secure online bidding platform. Qualified buyers can place offers anytime, from anywhere, creating open competition and helping to drive your sale price upward as bidders compete against each other. We also offer a Buy Now option for you and the potential buyers of the property. You will deal directly with the auction team who understand the market, both locally and nationally to deliver the best results for you and your clients.
0% Sales Fee
You can sell your property with absolutely no estate agency fees to pay. You keep all your sale proceeds, with no upfront costs to list in the auction. We have partnered with experienced solicitors who can prepare your legal pack on a No Sale, No Fee basis meaning you only pay solicitor costs once your property successfully sells.
