Auction Fees The following non-refundable fees apply: Buyer’s Fee- payable on exchange of contracts. This is calculated as a percentage of the actual purchase price of the property. Either: (a) 4.8% (including VAT) of the purchase price, for properties up to and including £250,000 (b) 3.6% (including VAT) of the purchase price for properties sold for over £250,000 The Buyer’s Fee is subject always to a minimum of £6,000 (including VAT). The Buyer’s Fee does not contribute to the purchase price.
Deposit On exchange of contracts, you must pay a non-refundable deposit equal to 5% of the actual purchase price of the property, subject to a minimum of £5,000. The deposit contributes towards the purchase price.
Payment Method When you register to bid, you will be prompted to provide your payment details to Martin Bond Auctions In the event that you are the winning bidder, your card will automatically be charged a proportion of the Buyer’s Fee & Deposit. The payment will be calculated based on the guide price of the property, in line with the fee scale described above. Where the actual purchase price is higher than the guide price, you will be required to pay the difference immediately after the end of the auction, which can be paid by debit card or bank transfer. Payment by cash or cheque will not be accepted. Example: You win the bid on a property with a guide price of £150,000, but the actual purchase price is £170,000. At this point your bid is successful you will be charged as follows: Buyer’s Fee of £7,200- 4.8% of guide price Deposit of £7,500- 5% of the guide price As the actual purchase price amounted to £170,000, after the auction, you will be required to pay the following additional amounts on top of the initial payment: £960 for Buyer’s Fee shortfall (£8160 due as 4.8% of actual purchase price) £1,000 for Deposit shortfall (£8500 due as 5% of actual purchase price)
