An Online Property Auction is a transparent platform where interested buyers engage in competitive bidding to acquire a property. This digital Auction setting allows you to capitalise on the market’s demand and potentially secure the highest price for your property on the day of the Auction.
Once a sale is agreed on the fall of the virtual hammer, the buyer is financially committed to the purchase. They pay a ‘Non-Refundable Administration Fee’ and a 5% or 10% Deposit, so are far less likely to pull out, compared to a Private Treaty sale, where there is no financial commitment whatsoever.
A Reserve Price is a figure agreed confidentially by the Seller and Auctioneer prior to the Auction beginning. This price is set during the Timed Online Auction and the property cannot be sold for less than it. The Reserve Price will be set somewhere within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide Price.
Moovd primarily focuses on residential, commercial, mixed-use, and land Auctions, showcasing their expertise in a diverse range of property transactions.
The Modern Method of Auction is faster because the Legal Pack is prepared in advance by the seller's solicitor. All necessary documents are readily available for the buyer's solicitors to review. This eliminates the lengthy waiting times caused in a Private Treaty sale.
Quite simply put, if we don’t sell your property, we will not demand any fee at all. Nothing! Including Legal Packs, it’s our belief we should only be paid on success.
It is the contract between the seller and buyer, for our timed online Conditional Auction (Modern Method of Auction) agreed by both parties prior to bidding.
Once entered, the buyer is given an Exclusivity Period, normally 28 days, to exchange contracts with the seller. Commonly, in this period, it is expected that they organise their finance to purchase the property.
As a result, arranging surveys, mortgage offers and arranging the remaining balance of their deposit and thus being in a position to exchange contracts come the end of the Exclusivity Period.
The security of an Online Auction is enhanced due to the financial commitment made by the buyer at the moment the virtual hammer falls. At this pivotal point, the buyer is required to pay a non-refundable Administration Fee as well as a deposit—typically either 5% or 10% of the sale price. This upfront financial obligation significantly reduces the likelihood of the buyer withdrawing from the sale, which contrasts sharply with Private Treaty sales that don’t include any such commitment, leaving the sale more vulnerable to fall-throughs.
Yes, Moovd’s Online Auction system promotes transparency, allowing all bidders to bid until the property achieves its true market value and “Best Price.”
