If you’re selling a desirable property, have inherited a property you don’t need, want to maximise the sale price from the market or need a quick secure sale consider a modern auction method. Instead of a saleroom, bidders can register online – helping you reach the largest possible audience.
It’s totally secure, with buyers paying a non-refundable reservation to secure the property and have 56 days to complete the transaction. The risks are low, and with our expert help, the rewards can be a much higher final price than a traditional action or sale.

We offer both traditional and modern methods with flexible routes for sellers looking to sell quickly, heighten interest in their property, or add security to the process that the open market may not be able to offer.
Traditional auction
At a traditional auction, buyers have one chance to secure the property they want, so give it the best chance by working with us. We can set a guide price, list your property, prepare auction packs and give it the best chance of realising the highest price.
