Property auctions: there’s no better time than now!

The property market hasn’t exactly been stable over the past couple of years with the COVID-19 pandemic causing havoc, but with the auctioneering process, you’re guaranteed the promise of a fast, efficient, and (if all goes well) predictable experience.

As the leading company of our field in the region, we’ve gathered years of experience between us to ensure that we can help our clients in the best ways possible. We’ve seen plenty of properties come and go throughout our careers in the industry, and the best advice we can give for anyone tempted to get involved is to start now.

It’s currently a great period to start considering auctioneering for several reasons, and we’ve listed a few below for you:

They’re growing in popularity: After an understandable hesitation to buy during uncertain times in the pandemic period, the property auctioneering business is now booming more than ever. firms have reported that they sold more than £240m worth of property at auction- a 40% increase from last year. We’ve additionally seen an uptake in interest in our auctions at Sharpes, with a high success rate in all of our latest auctions.

It’s always great to see appreciation behind auctioneering, but if you’re looking from a buyers standpoint, it’s better to ensure you stay ahead of the crowd to make the most tactical moves. We advise that you seize the opportunity to get involved now in order to retrieve the best bargains!

Stamp duty: The tax holiday on stamp duty rates has seen property investors across the nation take a keen interest in the advantages. With the guaranteed bonus of no stamp duty on properties under the £250,000 mark, the majority of auction house properties fall safely under this limit.
