FAQ About House Auctions in Bolton

Thinking about bidding or selling in Bolton? These common questions cover what buyers and sellers want to know before entering a property auction.

What are the benefits of using an auction house in Bolton?

A professional auction house gives you speed, certainty, and access to buyers across the UK. Your property is marketed nationally, including to cash buyers and investors, and every listing is backed by a legally binding process. Whether you are auctioning a semi-detached home or commercial property, the sale will be completed in 28 days.

Do Bolton auction buyers need to view the property before bidding?

It’s not required, but it’s a smart move. A 2024 study found that 1 in 5 UK buyers spend less than 20 minutes inspecting a property prior to submitting an offer. Spending time to examine the property lets you assess the design, state, and neighbourhood comprehensively, before placing an offer.

Can I sell a property that is currently on the market?

Yes. If you have struggled to sell property through traditional channels, auctioning offers a new opportunity. Many owners choose to auction property that has gone stale on the market or failed to draw significant bids. Auctions gain new interest with a fixed starting bid, helping sellers re-engage buyers and achieve better results.

How does the guide price relate to the starting bid?

The guide price is an estimate of your property's market value, while the starting bid is the minimum amount that will be accepted at auction. Both are discussed with your auctioneer during the valuation process. 

A competitive starting bid attracts numerous buyers, while your guide price helps buyers understand the property’s worth. The final sale price depends on how the bidding progresses during the auction.
