Get ready for one of our most eclectic auctions ever!
One of the joys of buying and selling at auction is getting to see the fantastic variety of homes that sell under the hammer.
This is especially true for online auction sales. By selling online, the Edward Mellor auction team are able to deliver diverse lots from across the UK, which can all be observed from the comfort of your own home!
As the countdown begins for our 13th – 14th August property auction, we’ve collected a selection of lots that highlight just a few of the unique lots appearing in this month’s event.
As auctions have grown in popularity, the word has gotten out that buyers can find the perfect property for their needs in record time.
One of the major advantages of the auction process is that properties of all types can be sold in weeks, rather than months.
This has led to increased competition between first-time buyers and landlords for smaller homes and apartments in recent months, while refurbishment opportunities, commercial lots and potential development plots continue to perform well at auction.
Whether you are looking to secure your first home or embark on your latest property investment, now is the time to register to bid for our 13th – 14th August online property auction.
Simply follow the link below to get registered, view our exciting lots and read the legal packs of any that are of interest to you.
Remember, you can also stay informed about our past and upcoming online property auctions by consulting our auction calendar, where we maintain details of all of our auctions.
With two auction events taking place during the month of July, you might be forgiven for thinking that our August online property auction would be a smaller affair.
However, our Edward Mellor auction team isn’t known for resting on its laurels, and together they’ve worked hard to bring together a selection of over 60 exciting lots for this month’s events.
These range from family homes and apartments to commercial properties and even a hotel!
The selected lots below represent just a cross-section of the properties going under the hammer this month. If you’d like to see the full range of our 13th – 14th August auction lots, be sure to visit the main auction page.
