How auction finance works for Auction Estates lots

At a Auction Estates auction, the hammer is an exchange of contracts: you pay a deposit on the day and complete inside the catalogue deadline, usually 28 days (20 on some lots). A standard mortgage rarely moves that fast, which is why most bidders use auction finance or a bridging loan. Bring us the lot and the catalogue before you bid and we shop a panel of 100+ lenders for an indicative offer within 24 hours, so you know your ceiling and can commit on the day.

If the lot is unmortgageable in its current state, a refurbishment or below-market-value buy, that is exactly what this finance is built for: the bridge funds the purchase now, you complete on time, then exit by refinancing onto a term mortgage or selling once works are done. We stress-test that exit first. We are a broker, not a lender, and we disclose every fee in writing before you commit.
