Most properties for sale in Australia are sold by private treaty.
Usually the seller (called the vendor) engages a real estate agent to list the property for sale. The vendor sets an asking price, and the purchaser negotiates to buy the property.
Often the purchaser makes an offer for less than the asking price, while the vendor tries to sell it for as close to the asking price as possible – and this is where the negotiations begin.
Auctions are usually held when you want a quick sale, or the market is strong and there are a lot of buyers interested in purchasing property.
Auctions generate a sense of urgency and competition that you don’t always get with a private treaty sale. The real estate agent will usually hold a strong marketing campaign (usually over about 4 weeks) with the aim of generating as much hype and interest in the property as possible.
On the day of the auction, the auctioneer will try to create an atmosphere of intensity and urgency. This encourages buyers to bid on the property, for fear of missing out.
There are strict rules when properties are sold by auction. The sale is final and there is no cooling off period. The highest bidder must immediately pay a deposit for the purchase.
Is this the first time you have sold a property? Or perhaps it's been so long since you last sold a home that you can't remember all the ins-and-outs? Whichever way, clients often have lots of conveyancing questions.
