Break free from the status quo!

A Private Treaty sale is the most common method of residential property sales in the UK. However, it can often be an inefficient solution for vendors looking to complete their property sale quickly and securely.

A significant number of Estate Agents are now selling properties using the Modern Method of Auction (MMoA), which combines elements of Private Treaty and Traditional Auction.

MMoA provides an alternative to vendors and gives them the opportunity to sell their property in a transparent, secure and speedy manner. The fixed 56-day timescale and unique offering of MMoA opens the service to mortgage buyers, creating a larger and more competitive marketplace, which drives increased exposure and activity.

The increase in MMoA for buying and selling is changing the face of the industry. It allows Estate Agents to expand their service offering and boost their cash flow through fixed completion times and faster.

Auction and Private Treaty

The Modern method of Auction ensures speed with 56-day completion timescales, compared to 100+ days for a Private Treaty sale, with committed buyers and fewer fall-throughs.

Modern Method of Auction

How it works:

Speed – Fixed timescales for a transaction, with a completion within 56 days from when the contract is signed following the auction. This allows sellers and buyers to proceed confidently with all aspects of moving
Transparency – The MMoA process and bidding is visible to all involved parties. Buyers are provided with a detailed Auction Pack on the property before the auction allowing them to make informed decisions
Security – MMoA offers a completion rate of 95% compared to the current 70% rate of Private Treaty, with buyers paying a Reservation Fee or deposit at point of sale, providing all parties with confidence and peace of mind
Online – We pride ourselves on our innovative technology which is why we offer bidding activity online 24/7 via the iamsold platform, to suit the needs of today’s busy buyers and sellers
