We break down the 5 steps to sell your property for free within 28 days through property auction.
As our customers will know, we are all about making the property selling process more easy, streamlined and affordable for all residential and commercial properties, regardless of if they are selling their first home, or another asset in their empire.
We are here today to tell you the 5 simple steps to sell your property for free within 28 days with Smart Auction UK.
Step 1 - Send us an enquiry
You can fill in the short form at the bottom of this blog. One of our team will contact you and run through your details, confirm that we are a free service for sellers and look at getting you allocated to an auction manager.
Step 2 - Dedicated point of contact
Once your auction manager is allocated, they will be your singular dedicated point of contact throughout the whole process, they will know all the ins and outs of the sale and means you won't get passed from pillar to post having to repeatedly explain yourself to some other member of the team. This point of contact will also be a specialist in your area, as we cover the whole of the UK, and be able to not only advise on pricing and the market, but will also be able to push this out to our interested investors who are looking to buy property within certain criteria.
Step 3 - The legal process
Auctions require a legal pack to be done upfront before the property is placed in the auction, so all information and conveyancing searches are done prior to any bids being put in. This completely blocks the possibility of fall throughs. Though most auction companies will charge for this service upfront, we will refer you to a no sale-no-fee solicitor, who will prepare your legal pack for you upfront, and only charge you if and when the property sells. Their fees are from £995+VAT to £1495+VAT depending on where you are in the UK.
Step 4 - Going live on the auction
We will list your property on auction song with all other marketing sites suck as Zoopla, Rightmove and on the market. We will also list it with our 3500 partner agents at 600 estate agents nationwide. The bidding will be open for 28 days and whoever wins the property for the highest bid over the secret reserve price will secure the property for themselves. We will also give you regular updates and you can view the property and its bids through our website.
Step 5 - Winning bid and exchange of contracts immediately
Once the winning bid has happened and the virtual gavel falls, contracts are exchanged immediately, the buyer pays a deposit on the property and solicitors are instructed. Depending on the time scale you have chosen as a seller, the sale can be completed within 28 days or 56+ days.
And that's it! Your property is sold!
