I’ve recently purchased a property in auction with Auction House London and had a very positive experience. The process was clear and the team on the phone helpful when answering my questions. As a first time auction buyer this was very important to me.

TrustpilotBravo
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.
Thank you Jeremy for your review of Auction House, we are so pleased to hear you were provided a 5 star experience. All the best - Lauren

Jenny was a real star and went the extra 10 miles to assist in a successful exchange. It would have failed without her expertise.
Hello, thank you for your great review. We're pleased to hear you've successfully exchanged. All the best - Abi

TrustpilotAs 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. We thank you for your review and bringing this to our attention to address in the most appropriate way possible, as we do not wish for this issue to be repeated.

Trustpilot£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!

TrustpilotREAD 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.

TrustpilotExcellent service
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.
Hi, thanks for your excellent review of Auction House Birmingham's fantastic customer service! Best, Auction House

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

TrustpilotIt’s a shame I cannot give a minus…
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.
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

Regular updates on interest in the property with realistic expectations of the sale. Would recommend to anyone thinking of auctioning a property.

TrustpilotWho knew selling by auction could be so easy!
After a long probate slog I was at last granted the Letters of Administration to sell my late sisters flat. By comparison the experience had with Joe at Auction House, was fast, efficient, trouble free and successful. His immediate response to every query made the sale so easy. I would recommend Auction House to anyone wanting to sell their property.
Thank you for your review. We'll be sure to share you kind words with Joe too. All the best - Sarah

Look no further than the Auction House South Yorkshire for your property needs. James, Sam and the team are second to none with their advice and knowledge in what they do. There is no pressure put on unlike other agents and you feel looked after rather than another sale. Keep up the great work team SY and hope we speak again soon.

My sincere thanks to Sam Harris for a thoroughly professional service, He took on the property on Friday and had a offer on Sunday which I accepted and the sale completed in 28 days. I was completely blown away by the way he handled the sale from start to completion. I would totally recommend using Sam Harris and Auction House UK .
