Residential Properties
There are always entries by private home owners that needs to be sold in a competitive bidding environment. Market value prices have regularly been achieved by this route, resulting in an outcome that cannot be challenged by any unsuccessful bidder.
Properties For Improvement
Properties in need of updating make ideal Auction Lots. They are in great demand from refurbishment specialists and private buyers, keen to undertake a project for their own occupation or for resale. They also appeal to buy-to-let investors who carry out the improvements then retain the properties as part of a property portfolio.
Tenanted Properties
Residential houses and flats with tenants in residence sell well at Auction. If the best buyer for your property is another landlord, and it usually will be, auction is the right route. We would encourage investers and landlords to bid competitively, you won’t need to serve notice on your tenants, and rental income continues to be received right up to legal completion.
Residential Investments
Houses in multiple occupation and blocks of flats are regularly sold at auction as investments. Here it is the rent level that determines the sale price, just as much as the building itself. Sellers will benefit from the high marketing profile and competitive bidding arena offered by Town and Country Property Auctions, plus the certainty of a sale when the hammer comes down.
Development Propositions
Derelict or disused farm buildings, empty commercial premises, buildings with potential for conversion or change of use can all sell well at Auction. In some locations a change to residential use can significantly add to the value of a property, in other situations there may be space for additional dwellings or to substantially enlarge the property. Auction is regularly chosen as the effective channel for such disposals.
