Beyond the call of duty from Dan

Dan has always been totally professional and meets at potential properties within a short and suitable timescale...even agreeing on occasions and today to accomodate a viewing outside of normal working hours. Auction House fees are also reasonable compared with competitors. Service is highly appreciated many thanks.

Auction House were extremely helpful

Auction House were able to arrange both viewings for us, and negotiate a pre-auction sale. Our Auctioneer, Helen Plumstead, has done her best throughout the purchase to help it go smoothly when we’ve had questions. Thank you so much, Helen.

Extremely friendly staff, especially Ted who showed us the property today, he was very helpful. I wanted to view specific property for which I didn't had an appointment and Ted had a busy schedule. I requested viewing and he rang his office to arrange it all and I was able to view the property straight way. Thank you guys

Bravo

The guys sold my flat in January and everything went swimmingly. I’m not the sharpest tool in the box when it comes to paperwork and so it was brilliant to have Adam and co. dealing with all the form filling nonsense that was just above my pay grade.Bravo.

As everyone else on here

As everyone else on here, I find it disgusting that I have family and friends living in Staffordshire wanting to make genuine investments with their savings and a company can buy up every house in need of work on the open market in the last 6 months and then add hidden fees of 15k in a last minute agreement after legal packs have been read. So the legal pack can't be read before auction by a qualified person and this is OK. Disgusting and you don't let the potential buyers know ahead

We are sorry to hear that you have encountered issues at one of our regional auctions. We have investigated your comments and spoken to Auction House Birmingham & Black Country in regards to this. They informed us that the team had been chasing the solicitor for the legal pack and advised all interested parties that there would be additional fees in the legal pack as part of the Auction Preamble and that buyers should read the Special Conditions and take any fees into consideration when deciding on when deciding on how much to bid.Further to this unfortunate episode, corrective action has been taken by the Auction House Birmingham & Black Country team to ensure this does not occur again.

£15,000 fees on top of every purchase price! Avoid Auction house and Kensington investments

The below review has missed another fee of £1200 to paid to the seller on top of the £10,000 and the £2,000 fees. Add to that the administration fee of £1500 and you are at £15,000 (or near as damn it) in extra charges!Kensington Investment Ltd are the sellers on most of the lots... They are renowned for ripping people off.If you call Auction House to ask for an explanation about the fees, you are told “buyer beware” and fobbed off!! It is you responsibility to make buyers aware of exorbitant fees! What is worse than the fees themselves is that fact that Auction house leave it until the day before the auction before uploading the contract to their website and even then you have to search for the fees with a fine tooth comb as they are written in word format designed to make people miss them!Auction house Birmingham are the worst auctioneer in Birmingham- far more reputable companies that you can buy from so avoid these con artists!

READ THE LEGAL PACK AS THERE ARE £12K HIDDEN FEES THERE

Second and last attempt to buy property from auctionhouse.co.uk. Just day before the auction they are adding a "contract" to the legal pack which says: buyer agrees to pay the SELLERS Administrative costs, legal fees, disbursements, auction costs in connection with the sale in the sum of £10000 (!) + Buyer agrees to pay the SELLERS Auctioneers costs minimum £2000 (!). Surprise surprise all the properties are owned by Kensington Inv Ltd. What is going on ? What game are you playing ? I will never use auctionhouse.co.uk ever again.

Excellent service. No hidden surprises and nice people to deal with. And they reply to emails and voicemail - that's a bit of a novelty these days. Customer avoidance seems to be flavour of the month for many businesses at the moment.

Beware of 'hidden' charges in the contract. It is all well and good Auction House saying "we advise" this or that. But why can't they simply state during the auction the huge charges that some of their unethical customers stipulate for some properties? It would appear that certain companies that deal with Auction House (Kensington Ltd in particular) have dodgy reputations.Why do they have ridiculously low 'guide' prices even when the same property has been sold recently for over four-times as much? Transparency? Nope.Professional?No way.Deceptive?Absolutely.Caveat Emptor

It’s a shame I cannot give a minus rating. Absolutely shocking. Stay away people. The property I was interested in was on for £40000. When I placed a bid for £40000, it told me that the reserve was not met. I increased the bid to £44000 and won the bid. They took £6200 before I could place the bid and told me if I won the bid then that would be used as deposit towards the property and the final balance would be reduced. Instead, I paid £58000 for the property as my solicitor told me that there are many many many hidden fees in their clause. So stay away unless you want to be ripped off. The solicitors acting on behalf of the seller are incompetent and thieves who charge tens of thousands of pounds for their fees. They deliberately delay the process so you may be in breach of the purchase agreement. And as for the keys of the property, I have no idea where they are and how to get access to them.

Mr · 22 December 2020

Agent replied · 12 June 2024

Hello,Please can you you confirm which property and Auction House team this is referring to, as the majority of our teams do not charge any money prior to bidding (most ring-fenced monies in the case you are the successful bidder, but this is not drawn down until after the auctions has closed). Without this information, we are unable to verify your claims are relating to a purchase through an Auction House franchisee.RegardsAuction House UK
