Auction Method:

The auction for this property will be conducted online through our online-bidding platform powered by Bamboo auctions. This is a “Timed Auction”. It differs to in room auctions by allowing you to bid from the comfort of your own home.

The proposed time slot and “end time” for the auction is displayed on Williams & Goodwin The Property People Ltd website - this may be subject to change, the property being withdrawn or sold prior. Bidding may open any time in the period usually up to 24 hours before the end time.

Auction type - Unconditional plus Fees:

Exchange will occur immediately at the end of the auction time period, provided you are the highest bidder and your bid has met or exceeded the reserve price. At that point, you have entered a legal commitment to complete the purchase and you will be charged £5000 online, which is split between the buyer fee and a holding deposit. Only the holding deposit amount will go towards the purchase price.

You must then transfer any outstanding amounts of the 10% deposit before 12pm the next business day and you must complete the sale within 20 business days unless the Special Conditions of Sale contained within the Legal Pack of that lot state otherwise.
