Passed at auction. Still need to sell. — in Newcastle.
The reserve didn't meet. You're paying ongoing costs on a property with no buyer. We've worked with sellers in this exact position — we have buyers who were put off by the auction process but will buy the same property post-auction at a fair price. Specifically for Newcastle and the surrounding Tyne and Wear area.
How it works in Newcastle
- Tell us the auction guide price and what the highest bid was.
- We approach buyers in our network who specifically look for unsold auction lots — they expect post-auction discounts but won't lowball.
- We aim to settle within 6-8 weeks so your cost-of-carry stops accumulating.
What we'll need from you
- The auction guide price and the highest bid received
- The reserve price (if you're willing to share)
- The full address and current monthly costs
What we sidestep (and the standard alternatives)
- Relisting at auction 3 months later and paying another 2% + VAT
- A new estate agent who'll spend 3 months 'testing the market'
- Selling for less than the highest auction bid just because the buyer chain collapsed
