mr slump Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 great work I don't really know what a provisional sale entails does that mean 10% not paid yet? the sale price of some of those terrace houses is amazing- regardless of the area desireability interesting to see on the not solds how high the bidders were prepared to go I'm going to have to get to one of these hardly ever anything on north down in these auctions which is a bummer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sophia Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hi to the 'source' and much thanks for posting the auction results. I was interested to see the North Parade, south Belfast property went for 240k, Rateable value 250k. Auction results are keeping me 'sane' at the moment as listening to EA whilst viewing overly expensive properties saying things like 'it will never drop to that around here' is doing my head in!!!! !!!!!!

mr slump Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 From Paul65 post earlier on in the thread:provisional sale - 'further ongoing negotiations would have to take place between buyer and seller to achieve a sale outside and away from auction' thanks fftb thought it might have meant a phone bid or something I thought that the auction sale was final sold as seen type of thing not really sure what the above means unless the bid didn't reach the minimum limit and a price is negotiated which would suggest 'unsold' will be the result of many need to learn some more methinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr slump Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 http://www.wilsonsauctions.com/property_de...w.asp?id=175204 guide £170000 (rateable- £125000) A typical house in the area on the open market would be priced between £200 - £250k making this an excellent opportunity to buy at a very realistic price. its true http://www.propertynews.com/brochure.php?r...=1&sort=h2l but come on, nice street and all but bangor is severly lacking in reality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr slump Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I doubt if the reserve is anywhere near rateable but I'd be tempted £115,000 I'd be very very tempted very good area but I rent in a good area too cheapest house for sale is £210,000 been on all year needs some cosmetic, new kitchen etc and ratable is £97,500 its unreal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple as that. Makes no sense to buy otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes no sense to buy otherwise. Remember when renting actually was dead money as the mortgage payment was less than the rent payment, back in the good old days when the banks were responsible lenders to those that were financially stable.

Makes no sense to buy otherwise. yeah I know, I'm impatient I want to wait for something we'll live in forever I'm a cash buyer so really I should wait till the point were the mortgage system is completely dry nearer the floor but before lending picks up so I can use the cash buy thing as leverage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr slump Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 question for those in the know thinking if i'm free, heading up to wilsons malusk on 4th dec really just to get the vibe, see the process work etc one thing though how do you pay the deposit without a chequebook...no I don't have (or want one) if i do phone or commision bid I need to do it by credit or debit card I have neither also means I have no debt which is nice for online buys I use a prepaid card anything else I get an over the counter cheque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should also have insurance arranged for the property immediately you win it. Without a cheque book or credit card you may struggle and a bankers draft will not be suitable either. Give them a call and see if they'll take cash instead although if you win a property at 100k you'll have to pay 10k cash on the night. Scary biscuits! I'll be there at Mallusk next week if you or anyone else here is thinking of popping along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr slump Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) Mr Slump - take a look at Wilsons Buying Guide, http://www.wilsonsauctions.com/property_buyersguide.aspOn a lot that you win/buy you will have to pay 10% on the night (minimum payment 3k) and complete with the rest of the finance within 28 days.

It kicks off at 7.30pm and I aim to be there around 7pm to have a coffee first and a chat with my NI HPC chums who attend and then get a good seat before the bidding starts. A wise idea IMO to attend a few auctions though first before you start to bid. Just to get a sense for the occasion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HERMY Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 (edited) Yep doccyboy, I'm all over it like a bad £15 Asda suit. I plan to attend and watch properties sell for proper prices and get a feel for what punters in the market are prepared to actually part with. It will do my soul the world of good to watch! Anyone else from this forum planning on attending? I'll be the mad one sitting in the corner with two pencils up my nose going "Wibble!" if anyone wants to introduce themself. I WOULD IMAGINE MOST OTHERS ON THE SITE ARE SERIOUS BUYERS AND WILL ONLY GO IF A PEOPERTY OF INTEREST IS AVAILABLE. Mod edit: Please check this reference for the forum rules.

HOPE I DONT OFFEND im offended to be honest. firstly why the need for capitals? secondly paul has done great service in collecting the results from every auction for over a year now. property auctions are a zero sum game - i actually plan to bid on a property at auction in london in 2 weeks. its a reposession. ill not be crying spilt milk for the previous owner.as im sure if i go bankrupt and the flat is one day repossessed from myself the next owner will not be shedding tears for my plight.
