This property is offered through Modern Method of Auction. Should you view, offer or bid your data will be shared with the Auctioneer, iamsold Limited. This method requires both parties to complete the transaction within 56 days, allowing buyers to proceed with mortgage finance (subject to lending criteria, affordability and survey). The buyer is required to sign a reservation agreement and make payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,000.00 including VAT.

Buyers will be required to complete an identification process with iamsold and provide proof of how the purchase would be funded.

The estate agent and auctioneer may recommend the services of other providers to you, in which they will be paid for the referral.
