The owners opted to sell with Auction House Sussex and Hampshire because of the certainty, transparency and speed of sale that the auction process offers, but they weren’t expecting things to move quite so quickly.
After marketing the property, our team received a pre-auction offer at 2.57 pm and contracts were exchanged with a three-week completion at 5.05 pm. That’s just 2 hours and 6 minutes from the offer being accepted to the exchange of contracts, and it’s all in a days work for our team.
