When the hammer falls, the property is yours and with us by your side, you’ll already know what to do next

Whether you’re looking to secure your forever home, or are seeking to grow your property portfolio, buying at auction can mean getting a great deal. The process is quick, but there are hidden pitfalls – especially if you are an inexperienced buyer.

As you are contractually bound from the moment the hammer falls, it’s important to take the time to read and understand the property pack well before the auction starts. There’s little wonder that it’s at this early stage that many buyers approach a solicitor for expert advice.

Working with Berwins’ expert team from the outset means that we are on hand to help you understand exactly what it is you are buying, ensuring that you are prepared for any actions that will need to be undertaken. This approach means that, as well as ensuring you have a mortgage in place and the 10% deposit you will need on the day, you have a clear plan for the 28 days after the auction in which you will need to finalise payment.

All of this means that, once the bidding has ended, you are in the best place possible to move forward with your new property.
