Don’ts;
It can be tempting to want to complete all the refurbishment work on a property to try and sell it for the best possible price. But the great thing about auctions, is that many buyers are looking for properties they can work on and add value to. In this sense it can often be better leaving a property in its current condition and working a reserve price around that.
Unlike selling via traditional means, with property auctions, you don’t have to worry about the property sale falling through. Once a reservation agreement has been made and upon acceptance of an offer, the property transaction is a secure one. Consequently, less thn 1 percent of auction property sales fall through. This compares with around 50 percent of private treaty sales.
