Auctioneer's Biggest Advice to People Buying at Auction

In our last video of the series Charlie shares his two top tips for those who are considering buying property at auction:

Tip 1: Do your research and preparation! Preparation really is key. Auction night is not the time to be conducting last minute research. Have it all sorted beforehand and it will make everything slightly less stressful.

Tip 2: Attend the auction with a figure in mind! You would have crunched all of the figures beforehand and you should know what your budget is. It is important to stick to it! (Yes, you should not go over your set figure despite Charlie's persuasion). If you miss out, don’t worry as there will always be another one around the corner.

Switch off the pub talk and don’t let the fear of the auction process deter you from sourcing deals at auction. Knowledge is power. Once you understand the auction process you will enjoy the buzz of a busy auction room – trust me!
