What Makes A Good Auction Lot

• Any land with or without planning permission.

• Property requiring renovation or remedial work.

• Leasehold properties with low leases or inactive freeholders.

• Houses suitable for conversion.

• A buyer is legally bound to purchase once the gavel as gone down. Those sellers requiring immediate sale because of relocation, moving abroad, or repossession may find this a preferable way of selling. Please note guide prices and reserves must be realistic to obtain a successful sale.

• Commercial investments, factories, shops or offices.
