Niche & Bespoke Auctions

Paging through Country House magazines 75 or so years ago, you would have found individual auctions of property to be a frequent event, indeed normal practice. Auctions took place in the property itself, or at the local inn. Evidence of this is found today in pubs across the land, which continue to display original auction posters of houses and estates. As auctions became increasingly popular, so they became centralised in major town centres, offering a far greater number of lots at each sale. Over a relatively short space of time, the individual auction all but disappeared. The opportunity for a highly personal approach, combined with the competitive atmosphere of a public auction was lost.

Now you can re-capture the the spirit of this exciting and effective approach. Do you have a unique or unusual property? Is your property on the market, but not selling? Are buyers sitting on the fence? We will produce an individual brochure of your property. We will agree media promotion. This can include National advertising, such as Country Life, supported by local promotion. Your property will be promoted on a major Internet property portal, generating local, national and international enquiries. If appropriate, we will work jointly with your existing agent. The auction will take place in your property or at a local venue. You have the security knowing that a successful bidder will exchange contracts on the day of the sale.....
