We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

To bid in the upcoming property auction, you must log in to our website and register for the correct auction. You will be required to pay a bidding deposit and complete our registration form.
We would urge you to register a couple of days in advance as we cannot guarantee you will be registered on time to bid if we only receive your documents on the day of the auction.
It is imperative that you register to bid in the name you wish the property to be registered with Land Registry on completion.
If buying in a company name, please ensure to detail the company name on the registration form. Once the property is exchanged, the vendor could decline to accept any change.
Buyers should review the legal pack with their solicitor and ensure they do their own due diligence before deciding to purchase.
All property offered at auction is under an unconditional contract, requiring the successful buyer to pay a 10% non-refundable deposit and complete within the terms of the contract, which is normally 14 days.
For these reasons, it is suitable for cash buyers only.
