Questions

What happens after winning an auction?

You’ve exchanged. You pay the deposit (often 10%) on the day and must complete by the deadline, often 28 days.

Do I need a solicitor before the auction?

It’s strongly advised. The legal pack can contain issues that are hard to undo after the hammer falls.

Can I get a mortgage for an auction?

Sometimes, but the deadline is tight. Bridging finance is often used.
