Impressed Seller
“Chris Edwards and Matthew Moore provided sound advice concerning the sale and we opted for auction, which was a first for us. Throughout the whole process the service provided was professional and went without any complications. All staff were courteous and approachable. The sale went to plan and we were pleased with the outcome. I would use this firm again and would recommend them to any prospective vendor.”

Just a quick note to thank you for the very professional way that you dealt with the sale of our house & the good price that you obtained. I would happily recommend your company to anyone wishing to sell a property.

Dilemma
“Dilemma – private sale or auction? Sound advice all through the process and ended up with a few thousand more in my pocket as a result. Smooth process, all viewings handled and a great outcome – thanks.”
Richard
Thank you
Just like to thank you for your efforts at the auction last night. Hopefully we will not hit any more snags and the sale finally goes through. Perhaps we should have done this months ago!
Sue & Steve
Delighted
We were delighted with the advice and professional service provided by Chris and the team. We sold parcels of land and void properties for prices above our expectations and would certainly recommend any other institutions to use them.

No Complications
“Sale by public auction was recommended and the property was successfully sold within the guide price. Throughout the whole process the service provided was professional and efficient. All staff were courteous and approachable. There was no complications, everything went through smoothly. I would certainly use this firm again and would recommend them to any prospective buyer.”
Pam
Kept well informed
“I was very impressed with the thorough way this firm carried out my business. I was kept informed of every stage of the auction process that they carried out on my behalf. This resulted in me getting a price for the property considerably in excess of the guide price in a deflated market."

Responsive and Easy to Deal With
As part of our Estates Rationalisation programme we identified the need to dispose of 2 properties during 2014 within the Walsall area. Both properties had had various internal structural works to convert from a residential property to office accommodation, making them prime for sale by auction.
All in all the service and support has been made available and as a company they are responsive and easy to deal with and communicate at every stage, including liasing directly with the Trust solicitors to respond to any legal queries.
Due to this being the first of rationalisation sales I attended the auction as an interested party. The auction was very well attended and managed, with standing room only. Both properties received a lot of interest on the night and both exceeded the reserve price. Whilst there were delays in the sale of one of the properties, both sales were managed via Chris and his team to a successful conclusion. From a Trust perspective the sales fulfilled a number of criteria as did the service, mainly providing a value for money service.
The transaction and communication was professional throughout to the point that having identified through a continual review of the estate a further 2 properties have been identified as surplus and meet the criteria above, that Auction House have been appointed to dispose of the assets via auction on behalf of the Trust.

Thank you
Our sincere thanks for your advice and professional service throughout the sale.
From the outset Chris's enthusiasm and confidence in the outcome of a 'Sale' by auction was vindicated with an excellent outcome, exceeding our expectations.
We were kept well informed of all pre-sale developments and on the evening the whole procedure was well managed by solicitors and all staff involved.
We would certainly recommend a 'sale' by auction through Birmingham & Black Country to others in similar circumstances.

No Fuss
As part of our void sale scheme we wanted to dispose of 3 properties within the Burntwood and Rugeley areas. 2 of the properties had suspect structural issues and the other was in a very dilapidated condition, making them prime for sale by auction.
Chris attended the properties with me within 24 hours of making contact with the office and provided prompt valuations. We agreed the terms and conditions without fuss and I was kept up to date by the marketing agent and Chris with regards to interest levels and offers.
We paid Auction House to take care of the signing of the contracts, so on the day of the auction all I had to do was log in and see how the result had gone. Fortunately all 3 properties sold on the night. 2 properties only met the reserve, but these were the structural defective ones and the other achieved £20,000 over the Guide Price which was a great result.
The transaction and communication was professional throughout and should we get any further stock suitable for auction, we wouldn't hesitate to use Auction House again.
