Is selling by auction right for your property? It’s a sales route we’ve seen grow more and more in popularity recently, and I do think it can be a really positive option for many sellers.
A lot of people still think of auction as something reserved for very specific types of property, but that really isn’t the case anymore.
At Courtney Downing Estates, we offer both traditional property sales and auction sales, so it’s not about pushing one route over the other. It’s about looking at your property, your position and your timescale, then deciding which option makes the most sense.
For the right seller, auction can create momentum, bring serious buyers together and give the whole process a clearer structure from the start.
Some of the benefits include:
💷 No selling fees to pay
🤝 A financially committed buyer
⏱️ Completion within 28 or 56 days
🛡️ A clear reserve price
👀 Transparent bidding
📣 Strong online exposure
🏡 A more structured route to sale
Of course, auction won’t be right for everyone. For some properties, a traditional sale will still be the best approach. But if you’re thinking of selling, it’s worth understanding both options before deciding which route to take.
The right choice often depends on your property, your position, your timescale and what you want from the sale.
I’ve put together a blog looking at how auction sales work, the benefits, and when it may be worth considering.
