Why choose a Property Auction?

Auction offers a number of distinct advantages over traditional methods of sale:
Speed and Certainty Once the hammer falls, the buyer is legally committed to purchase, with completion typically taking place within 28 days. This removes the uncertainty often associated with private treaty sales.
Competitive Bidding Environment Auctions create competition between buyers, often driving the final sale price above expectations.
Transparent Process All interested parties can see the bidding unfold in real time, ensuring a fair and open process.
Serious Buyers Only Buyers must carry out due diligence in advance and provide a deposit immediately after the auction, reducing the risk of fall-throughs.

Is Auction Right for Your Property?

Auction is suitable for a wide range of property types, including:
  • Residential properties requiring refurbishment
  • Investment properties with tenants in situ
  • Land and development opportunities
  • Commercial properties
  • Unusual or non-standard assets
However, it is increasingly being used for well-presented, mortgageable homes where sellers want speed and certainty.
