About Venmore, Auction Department

8-10 Allerton Road, Liverpool L18 1LN
Industry affiliations:

Venmore is Liverpool's oldest property auction house. Over the past 160 years we have had an excellent success rate in selling residential, commercial, investment property, repossessions and land. We hold regular property auctions throughout the year covering Merseyside, Wirral, West Lancashire, Cheshire and the Northwest

A typical auction property is one requiring work and modernisation however both residential and commercial investment properties and development opportunities attract great interest at auction, with some properties achieving a higher realisation price than their guide prices due to the determination of bidders to acquire a particular lot.

Uniquely we offer both traditional auctions which are held six times a year in Liverpool City Centre and On-line property auctions highlighting our innovative approach to property auctions.

Properties for sale at auction can be viewed via our on-line or printed auction catalogue, property portals or by calling into one of our branches across Merseyside, Wirral and West Lancashire.

Auctions offer both the buyer and seller a definitive timeframe to complete the transaction. Normally contracts are exchanged on the day of the sale and completion takes place within 28 days.

Our dedicated auction team arrange inspections of any potential properties and advise you on the most effective method of sale. Our goal is to give clear open and consistent advice to guide you through the auction process.
