Important information:

All bidders are strongly recommended to have thoroughly inspected any property prior to bidding, including seeking the advice of a surveyor, and to have read the Legal Pack and taken advice from a qualified legal representative. Please read carefully the general and special conditions of sale and any changes within the sale. A&G can accept no responsibility for any bidders not adhering to this advice.

Legal Pack

The legal pack for this property is available upon request prior to the auction. This pack includes a variety of legal documents that apply to the sale. The legal pack can change at any time up until the auction starts so you must check for the most recent version of the legal pack. At the point of placing your bid, you are deemed to have read the legal pack in its entirety, including any changes. Failure to check for changes to the legal pack will not be a valid reason for withdrawing from the sale. It is strongly recommended that you instruct a qualified professional to review the legal pack and raise any necessary enquiries before bidding.

Special Conditions of Sale

The property is sold subject to any Special Conditions of Sale. These are contractual conditions that are included by the seller of the property - they are not part of A&g's terms and conditions. The Special Conditions of Sale are legally binding. It is the buyers responsibility to have read and accepted these at the point of bidding, even if you have not done so. The Special Conditions of Sale are available to read within the legal pack.

Guide & Reserve Price

This property is offered at a guide price and may also be subject to a reserve price. The reserve price is the sellers minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell.

Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.

Auction Day

Make sure you check the addendums list to ensure this lot has not been withdrawn or sold prior to the auction, postponed until a later auction date, or any last minute changes have been made to the catalogue entries. It is recommended to arrive early as the auction room can be very busy with limited space, and if you wish to bid, you should make sure you registered to bid and then are in clear view of the Auctioneer's rostrum. If you have any questions, make sure to ask one of the A&G team before the start of the auction. Ensure you make it clear when you wish to bid on a lot, either by raising your hand, holding up a catalogue, or by raising your bidders paddle.

Successful Bids

When the hammer falls, you will have exchanged contracts and have entered a legally binding sale. If you are the winning bidder, you will need to complete the Memorandum of Sale and pay your deposit and administration fee. You will need to have two forms of id with you; one photographic (e.g. Driving licence or passport), and one proof of address (e.g. Utility bill dated in the last three months). If multiple people are to be named on the memorandum, you will need id for all parties. If a property fails to reach its reserve and it is not sold in the room, you can speak with a member of the A&G team to express an interest. It may be possible to negotiate a sale after the auction, which would then still proceed under normal auction rules.
