We offer a first-class auction finance & mortgage service based in Bristol:
The process of buying a property at auction can offer an alternative to traditional home buying, but it does require a slightly different approach to mortgage financing. It is typical for successful auction property bidders to be required to pay a 10% deposit at the auction, followed by a 28-day payment period - so if you haven't arranged a mortgage before the auction, you don't have a lot of time to do so.
It's a good idea to arrange this before you place your successful bid and pay your 10% deposit. It is possible that you will lose your deposit as well as your chance to buy the property if you fail to pay the remaining 90% balance within the allotted time frame.
In order to receive a mortgage offer for an auction property, you will need to get a mortgage survey and valuation done. Before attending a property auction, it is important to have your finances in order and to have a clear budget in mind – don't get carried away and bid beyond your means.
