Buying and selling at a Modern Auction
A modern auction is an auction that is conditional up until the exchange of contracts and is different from the traditional method of auction where once the hammer falls, contracts are in effect exchanged and you are legally bound to complete.
Under the modern auction method at the end of the auction, the successful bidder must place a non-refundable reservation fee with the auction agents to reserve the property.

Selling an auction property in Ipswich
Selling a property through the open market can be a time-consuming process. It could take months to sell your property and receive your funds, as sales are contingent on several different factors, including negotiations, buyers selling their current property, and securing a mortgage.
In contrast, listing your property at an auction can lead to a faster sale, as buyers are likely to already have funds available and are ready to buy a property in less-than-perfect condition, although this can impact the sale price.
At Attwells, our auction property solicitors in Ipswich will support you throughout every stage of selling your property in an auction.
