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.

*Please note that an aml fee is chargeable to the buyer once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks.
Once these checks have been completed, the fee cannot be refunded, even if the property purchase does not go ahead.* Conditions Of Sale The Conditions of Sale will be deposited at the offices of the auctioneers and vendor's solicitors seven days prior to sale and the purchaser shall be deemed to have knowledge of the same whether inspected or not.
Any questions relating to them must be raised prior to the auction. Prospective purchasers are advised to check with the auctioneers before the sale that the property is neither sold nor withdrawn.
The purchaser will also be deemed to have read and understood the auction conduct notes printed within the sale catalogue.
Health & Safety Advice Whilst the auctioneers make every effort to ensure the safety and security of viewers at lots, we have not carried out a detailed Health & Safety inspection of the lots in our auction and cannot therefore guarantee the safety and security of viewers.
All persons attend properties entirely at their own risk. Particular care should be taken when accessing cellars, attics, exterior grounds, outbuildings and boundaries.
All unaccompanied inspections of vacant sites should be made in daylight hours only and entry into such sites is entirely at the viewers' risk.
* Guide And Reserve Prices Guide Price: An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction.
The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase.
It is usual, but not always the case that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing.
As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued.
This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall.
A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
Note The auctioneers offer four ways to bid including Internet, telephone, proxy, and live room bidding.
Prospective purchasers will need to register to bid and pay a holding deposit before the sale commences by registering at Barnard Marcus Auctions website. We do not take credit card or cash deposits.
The sale of each lot is subject to a documentation charge of £1,800 (including vat) payable on the fall of the hammer.

Agents Notes It is our understanding that the Property is not registered at the Land Registry which is the case with a significant proportion of land across England and Wales.
Your conveyancer will take the necessary steps and advise you as to time-frames for registration. **The previous sale fell through due to concerns regarding potential movement at the property.
The vendor subsequently made enquiries through their home insurance provider, who confirmed there has been some historical movement, however they advised that underpinning works are not required.
Their recommendation was for resin injection treatment to stabilise and strengthen the ground, as the affected rear corner of the property is reportedly situated on sandier-than-normal soil conditions.
Any prospective purchaser should be advised to undertake their own independent investigations, seek appropriate professional advice, and satisfy themselves as to the nature of the issue, any recommended remedial works, and the associated costs before proceeding.** 1.
Money laundering regulations - Intending purchasers will be asked to produce identification documentation at a later stage and we would ask for your co-operation in order that there will be no delay in agreeing the sale.
