The property is offered for sale via Online Auction which is a flexible and Buyer friendly method of purchase. The purchaser will not be exchanging contracts on the fall of the virtual hammer but will be given 56 working days in which to exchange and complete the transaction from the date the Draft Contract is issued by the Sellers solicitor.
By giving a Buyer time to exchange contracts on the property, normal residential finance can be arranged. The Buyer’s Premium secures the transaction and takes the property off the market. Fees paid to the Auctioneer reserve the property to the Buyer during the Reservation Period and are paid in addition to the purchase price and are considered within calculations for Stamp Duty Land Tax. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative.
The Buyer will be required to give the Auctioneer authority to sign the Reservation Form on their behalf and to confirm acceptance of the Terms and Conditions prior to solicitors being instructed. Copies of the Reservation Form and all Terms and Conditions can be found in the Information Pack which can be downloaded from our website or requested from our Auctioneer.
Upon close of a successful auction, or if the Seller accepts an offer during the auction, the Buyer will be required to make payment of a non-refundable Buyer's Premium of £6600 including VAT, plus a Legal Pack Fee of £396 including VAT, a total of £6996. This secures the transaction and takes the property off the market.
The Legal Pack is prepared by goto and includes the documents of title (including, if the title is registered, the entries on the register and the title plan) and other documents, this will be made available to the successful Buyer and can be used by your solicitor to help progress the transaction.
The Buyer's Premium and Legal Pack Fee are in addition to the final negotiated selling price.
All Buyers will be required to verify their identity and provide proof of how the purchase will be funded.
There are no other fees or charges payable to the Auctioneer however, there are other costs to consider such as:
• You will need a Solicitor to act for you during the conveyancing and your Solicitor will advise you in relation to the associated costs.
