Buying a property at auction is very different to traditional purchases. Completions happen much faster, so it often pays to arrange your finance before the auction gets into full swing. After all, you’re the legal owner the moment the hammer goes down – and you’ll typically have only 28 days to provide the balance of the purchase price. We work with Together Finance, who are well-versed in the world of short-term finance. Their experts are on-hand before, during, and after the auction to help you turn the funds around within a tight timeframe. They will finance your standard two up two down or semi- detached to used opportunities, unusual properties, and building plots lacking planning permission.
