This property is for sale by the online Modern Method of Auction which is not to be confused with traditional auction. The Modern Method of Auction allows the purchaser 28 days to achieve exchange of contracts from the date the buyer's solicitor is in receipt of the draft contracts and a further 28 days thereafter to complete. Allowing the additional time to exchange on the property means interested parties can proceed with traditional residential finance.

Fees paid to the Auctioneer are in addition to the price agreed. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative.
