Hi there!

So you’re thinking about selling by auction!...

Property Auctions are a powerful tool, and they remove many of the issues of selling via an estate agent.

As an auction seller, you’ll enjoy 3 main benefits:

  • Auctions have a high success rate
    (Roughly 78% of auction properties achieve a sale)
  • Auctions are fast
    (An auction sale can be agreed in as little as 6-8 weeks)
  • Auction sales are binding
    (Meaning only a fraction fall through)

So property auctions can be a great solution...

But the process is new to a lot of sellers, so I'm glad you found your way to this page!

I've done the groundwork to find you a leading auction house ready and waiting to give you a free valuation, and answer all your auction questions.

Notice: Home Selling Expert is supported by our audience. When you use businesses we recommend through our site, they may pay us a referral fee.

But I do not just recommend the companies that pay us the biggest fees. Our integrity is worth a lot more than that.

Most auction houses offer referral fees, but I choose to recommend this auction house because I know from experience they're one of the best options if you're considering this route.

Remember, your details will only be shared with one auction house. I've worked with them for several years, and I'll be here to offer support in the unlikely event you run into any problems.

It's completely free to get an auction valuation from them, and there's no obligation. If you don't like the price discussed or the process doesn't feel right for you, you can simply walk away.

In the section below I've listed some of the main benefits customers experience when they decide to sell via auction.

3. Benefits of An Auction Sale

Let's recap some of the benefits of using a leading property auction.

Pro #1: Speed

  • Faster than alternatives: Selling via auction is several months faster than selling through an estate agent.
  • Quick timeframes: You can find a buyer via auction in as little as 6-8 weeks, but the timeframes can be slightly flexible.
  • Deadlines: Auction buyers have to work to set deadlines, meaning things can't drag on indefinitely!

Pro #2: Certainty

  • Better than alternatives: Selling by auction gives you roughly an 80% chance of success, compared with only around 51% for estate agents.

More benefits ‍of selling by auction:

  • Sell your house as-is. Auctions are full of cash buyers, professional developers, and other investors who won't be put off by a property needing work.
  • No unqualified viewings. No tidying up for flaky viewings, who need a mortgage or haven't sold their house yet. Auctions are chain-free and buyers use cash or other non-mortgage financing.
  • No estate agents. We recently surveyed 291 home sellers asking how satisfied they were with their estate agent. Unfortunately, nearly a third scored them 6/10 or lower. If you sell via auction you won't have to deal with any agents.
  • No chains. Auction buyers have funds ready and they're chain free. This ensures the easiest move possible for you.

To find out how much you could get selling via auction, just complete the short enquiry form and get started.

By using the auction house I've vetted and recommend, you can save a lot of headaches.

Some auction houses only specialise in certain areas, certain price brackets, or certain property types. This means they may not be a good fit for your home.

The auction house I work with is one of the largest and most established in the country, and has complete coverage of the entire market.

This is the company who'll be in touch when you complete the enquiry form.

In the section below you can check out some recent reviews of their service.

Fantastic service to offer

Was given Matt's website details by a friend who had been helped by him in the past. Matt was able to offer suggestions that I hadn't considered and will now be taking forward. This is a fantastic service to offer and it's free. I can't thank Matt enough.

Highly recommended - thank you!

An excellent service with truly impartial advice. Matt really helped me review my options in a systematic and helpful manner and was very understanding of what has been a very stressful process in selling my property. I thoroughly recommend both Matt and his website - thank you for being there!

What if it doesn't work out?

Still having second thoughts about reaching out to my recommended auction house for a free valuation & consultation?

Here's what I always suggest for home sellers who are on the fence...

There's no harm done just finding out what you could get.

Best-case scenario: 

If the auction valuation's something you're happy with, you can get started and can move on quickly. Which is great!

Worst-case scenario:

But if the price is too low or you don't like the sounds of the process, then you can just walk away. It's totally free to get a valuation, and there's no obligation and never any hard-sell.

If you're on the fence it's useful to get an auction valuationfor two reasons: 

  1. When you see that price in black and white it'll help clarify your priorities and what price you'd really be happy with.
  2. If the auction price doesn't stack up for you, then at least you've looked into it and you know it's not a viable option. You can focus your efforts elsewhere, such as selling via an estate agent.

So go ahead - complete the short enquiry form and get an auction valuation now.
