Tips about the process of selling your property using an auction
Selling your property through an auction involves setting a reserve price, which is the lowest value at which you are still willing to sell your property. Auctioneers often encourage owners to set this price below a property’s market value, hoping that this will increase the attention that your property gets and therefore make more people want to buy it during the auction. If this happens then several buyers might keep trying to outbid one another, pushing the price up. Then again, you might only get one bid at the reserve price, in which case your home sells at that value because even a single bid is an enforceable agreement to buy a property. And you should also be prepared that your property will not sell if it does not receive any bids.
A major benefit of selling using this method is that the date of the auction therefore gives you some relatively certainty about when your property might sell. And it also minimises the amount of work that a property owner has to do in trying to find a buyer, because the auctioneer will be responsible for advertising the property and generating enough interest to successfully sell it. This can be a great way to reduce the stress from the overall process of selling a property.
Connect UK Auctions: Questions and answers about selling properties
The company pledges on its website that the maximum time it will take between your property selling at a specific auction and the sale process being completed – which includes exchanging contracts on your property and you receiving the sale proceeds is no more than 28 days. This is typical of many auctions, but Connect UK Auctions is particularly committed to that goal.
Yes, as with many other auction companies you will have to pay for the work that Connect UK Auctions does in terms of advertising your property’s listing and selling it, although in certain situations it is possible to have the winning high bidder be the one who has to pay these fees.
In addition to its head office, which is based in Crawley, near Gatwick, the company also has offices throughout the south of London including in Brighton in Sussex, in Maidstone in Kent, in Southampton in Hampshire, in Plymouth in the southwest, in Bristol in Gloucestershire, and in Chelmsford in Essex, so you should pick the office that is closest to your property.
