Thinking of Selling at Auction?
Here's What to Do:
​
-
Get in Touch: Reach out to The Property Auction Agent and talk to our team.
-
Share Details: Tell us about your property and situation.
-
Free Valuation: We'll visit and evaluate your property at no cost.
​
Ready to Auction?
-
Start: Great choice! You're selling with The Property Auction Agent's online platform.
-
Paperwork: Sign our auction contract, provide two IDs, and your solicitor's details.
-
Access & Legalities: We'll need to visit the property for marketing prep. Your solicitor will organise legal documents, which we'll put online for potential buyers.
​
Promoting Your Property:
-
We'll list your property online.
-
Our large buyer and investor network will receive your property details.
-
We'll use our website, emails, and socials like Facebook and Instagram for promotions.
​
Viewings:

Our staff will be there to guide and answer questions during viewings.
-
You'll get feedback from these visits.
​
Setting a Price:
-
Decide the minimum sale price; it remains confidential.
-
Agree on a price? Sign a reserve letter before auctioning. Typically, this is 10% more than the guide price.
-
Got an early offer? Accepting means the same quick and secure auction conditions apply.
​
Online Auction:

Our website shows the auction start and end times, with a countdown.
-
Auction ends? The highest bidder signs the contract and pays a deposit.

Completion is typically 28 days post-auction, unless special conditions apply.
