Buying or Selling at Auction
Buying or selling property at auction is designed to move quickly, and it becomes legally binding fast. If you’re the successful bidder, contracts are exchanged as soon as the hammer falls. From that point, you are committed to complete, usually within 28 days (and sometimes sooner), so the legal work needs to be handled with pace and precision.
At Gittins McDonald, our Conveyancing Solicitors are assisted by a dedicated team of auction specialists with decades of experience who act for auction buyers and sellers across England and Wales, combining technical expertise with a modern, tech-led service that keeps your transaction progressing efficiently. If you’re buying, we can review the auction legal pack before you bid, explain any risks in plain English, and help you make an informed decision. If you’re selling, we can prepare a strong auction pack and contract documentation that supports a smooth sale and reduces the scope for last-minute issues.
Town & Country Auctions list us as their preferred conveyancer for their auction sale matters. Contact us now to find out why.
