We do not require the purchaser to exchange contracts immediately but grant 56 days to exchange and complete. This additional time to exchange on the property means interested parties can proceed with traditional residential finance.

Upon close of a successful auction or if the vendor accepts an offer during the auction, the buyer will be required to put down a non-refundable deposit of 2% (minimum of £5,000), which secures the transaction and takes the property off the market.

The buyer will be required to sign a purchasers agreement to confirm acceptance of terms prior to solicitors being instructed. Please note this property is subject to an undisclosed reserve price which is generally no more than 10% in excess of the Starting Bid, both the Starting Bid and reserve price can be subject to change.

Terms and conditions apply to the Modern Method of Auction and can can be viewed in full here.

Properties With A Short Leasehold

Where a property is being sold with a short lease, the property can be purchased with either a short lease or with an extended lease, subject to buyer preferences and the offer price made. The starting bid will be set 10% below the cash price required to purchase with a short lease. Mortgage buyers who require a purchase with an extended lease must make a higher bid as this must also include the additional premium required to pay for the lease to be extended before completion. The cost of the lease premium can vary depending on the length the lease is to be extended and on negotiation with the purchaser and freeholder and whether the lease is to be extended by mutual agreement with the Freeholder or via the Statutory Route. Therefore, buyers must contact a member of the sales team to discuss this is greater detail.
