To all but the experienced property trader, the prospect of committing to buy your next home at auction can be daunting so if you do find your ideal house or flat is up for sale in this way, it is vital to have experienced legal professionals on your side.
We can offer sensible, practical advice to help you decide how to proceed and, when the time comes, our conveyancing specialists will handle the legalities of your purchase swiftly and efficiently.
Homes come under the hammer for a variety of reasons, often because they are dilapidated or difficult to value, so it is important that you inspect the property carefully and make the most of any opportunities to view before you bid.
If you are pleased with what you see, it is a good idea to consult your conveyancer as soon as possible so we can check in detail the auctioneer’s transaction conditions and undertake all the necessary pre-sale searches, liaising with your bank or mortgage lender as appropriate.
Accuracy and speed are of the essence
If your bid is successful and at the auction you secure your chosen property, you can rely on us to act quickly and thoroughly; in most cases, the winning bidder will have a legal obligation to complete their purchase promptly and pay all monies due to the seller within 28 days.
With local knowledge at our fingertips and a wealth of valuable auction conveyancing under our belts, we are excellently-placed to advise and support you through your property auction experience. Whether you are a frequent or first-time visitor to the sales room, a buyer or a seller, from start to finish we will ensure your best interests drive your transaction.

Client Testimonials
Nick, Maddie and Sally were absolutely brilliant. Very approachable, efficient and worked very hard to get our matter completed very quickly. Will definitely recommend to friends/family. Thank you to all so much again.
Jonathan Kerr CrowNick, Sally, Maddie & Lara, I just wanted to thank you for the excellent service that you all provided in the recent sale and purchase of our home. You made a stressful process a great deal easier, with your prompt responses, ready availability and sound advice. We are very grateful and would recommend you to others. I will complete your feedback form, but just wanted to email my thanks to you directly. Best regards
Richard ClayWe just wanted to take the time as well to say a personal thanks to the pair of you for your excellent service and support during our move. We had used you before but, like many people, we were tempted to go this time with one of the low cost on line conveyancing quotes we received. Had we done so we are now sure we would have regretted it as we feel that the exemplary service we got from yourselves was true value for money. In particular, towards the end of the process when we had to deal with a very demanding buyer for our house we felt very well supported by you not just in the technical elements of your service but also in the responsiveness and personal support we received. We have heard numerous stories from friends and colleagues of how they have struggled with conveyancing services during property transactions and have enjoyed telling people what a positive experience we had with George Ide.
Jeremy & Nicky MillsYou have been a pleasure to deal with and have been so competent, patient, organised and professional. I still cannot believe how stress-free the whole procedure was with you. In stark contrast, I completed today on my house in N Ireland after five (!) months of legal wrangling. I am delighted with the house and, although still surrounded by packing boxes, am making progress. Once again. Thank you for all you did. Kind regards,
Elaine YoungThe speed from offer to completion surprised everyone we spoke to and more than met our deadline to beat the June Stamp Duty deadline. Well done, absolutely delighted.
John MiddleditchNicholas Smith was highly professional, focused and responsive. He worked to a very tight timetable to
complete the purchase of our house and I would strongly recommend him to prospective clients
Nick was always very quick to respond to any queries and made the whole process a lot less stressful, especially as it was my first property purchase. Guidance documentation was very helpful too. I can’t fault the service.
Teresa DurrantIt is hard to improve on an existing, excellent service and I have no suggestions to make. I will definitely recommend you and would use your services again.
Mr. Philip Oliver“Just a very quick, but nonetheless very sincere and heart-felt thanks on behalf of J and myself for your highly professional and sympathetic help in the house sale/purchase saga – you certainly saved our respective sanities on several occasions when your wise words proved to be the right course of action.”
Mr T
Thank you very much for facilitating the sale of my house in Solva despite all the difficulties of me being in Portugal at the start, and the tardiness of the other solicitors.
It is great that all is completed and I am grateful for your cheerful help.
SH
See ReviewMany thanks again for your work and support on the sale of my flat in Putney – as per my previous experiences on sale/purchasing properties with your help, you give conveyancing lawyers a good name! Very efficient, prompt and pragmatic plus you know what to advise/caution me on without overdoing it. After the dust has settled I will be looking for an investment property to buy so no doubt will be back in touch in due course. Enjoy the rest of the summer and thanks again.
