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.

About
A three-bedroom semi-detached home set on a generous plot with a large south-facing rear garden, offering excellent potential for full refurbishment and extension (subject to the relevant consents).
The property has been let for a number of years and now requires comprehensive modernisation throughout, presenting a clear opportunity for investors, developers or buyers seeking a project in a well-regarded Hale Barns location.
The accommodation comprises a front living room, a separate kitchen to the rear, and a ground floor bathroom with separate WC positioned off the kitchen.
To the first floor are three bedrooms, including two well-proportioned doubles and a further single.
Externally, the property benefits from a substantial rear garden with a south-facing aspect, providing clear scope to extend or reconfigure the layout in line with neighbouring homes.
There is evidence of damp and mould within the property, and it is therefore best suited to cash buyers or those experienced in renovation.
Positioned within easy reach of Hale Barns, Hale Village and Altrincham town centre, the property offers strong resale potential within an increasingly sought-after setting.
This property is for sale by the Modern Method of Auction. Should you view, offer, or bid on the property, your information will be shared with the Auctioneer, iamsold.
This method of auction requires both parties to complete the transaction within 56 days of the draft contract for sale being received by the buyers solicitor.
This additional time allows buyers to proceed with mortgage finance (subject to lending criteria, affordability, and survey).
The buyer is required to sign a reservation agreement and make payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee.
This being 4.50% of the purchase price including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,600 including VAT.
The Reservation Fee is paid in addition to purchase price and will be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property in the calculation for stamp duty liability.
Buyers will be required to go through an identification verification process with iamsold and provide proof of how the purchase would be funded.
This property has a Buyer Information Pack which is a collection of documents in relation to the property.
The documents may not tell you everything you need to know about the property, so you are required to complete your own due diligence before bidding.
A sample copy of the Reservation Agreement and terms and conditions are also contained within this pack.
The buyer will also make payment of £300.00 including VAT towards the preparation cost of the pack, where it has been provided by iamsold.
The property is subject to an undisclosed Reserve Price with both the Reserve Price and Starting Bid being subject to change. You may be recommended services by the Agent/iam-Sold.
Recommended services are optional and the Agent or iam-Sold will receive payment from the provider where recommended services are taken.
As such you should consider your options before accepting recommended services.
