Buying and Selling Property at Auction
Selling a property at auction is a favourable option for those looking for a fast, efficient, and transparent way to sell a home in Ascot, Bracknell and the surrounding areas.
WHY SELL AT AUCTION?
Speed
Competition
Transparency
Certainty
Efficiency
Speed
Auctions typically have a set date and time for the sale, and the buyer commits legally with an exchange of contracts on conclusion of the auction.
Competition
Auctions often attract multiple potential buyers, which can drive up the price of the property through competitive bidding to achieve the best price.
Transparency
The auction process is transparent, with all bids made in public and visible to all interested parties.
Certainty
When the auction is complete, the sale is final, with no further negotiations or offers needed.
Efficiency
It is possible to complete on a property sold at auction in as little as 20 working days.
SIX STEPS TO A SUCCESSFUL SALE
Step 1
Book a valuation
Our professional valuer will inspect your property and provide a free, no obligation valuation. They will explain the auction process, discuss timescales and recommend a reserve price.
Step 2
Preparing for auction
Once instructed, we will prepare the marketing of your property to include photos, floor and site plans and an EPC. At this stage the auction date will also be set.
Step 3
The legal pack
With our guidance, you instruct your solicitor to prepare the legal pack, which includes all the legal conveyancing documentation. The pack will be available for any prospective purchasers to inspect leading up to the auction date.
Step 4
Property viewings
We will conduct viewings at the property with prospective bidders, who will have been registered and provided payment card details prior to bidding.
Step 5
Auction day
Online bidding commences, and our online system allows you to track the progress and bidding on your property. You can see exactly how many bids have been made and what the current highest bid is. A deposit is paid by the winning bidder and contracts are exchanged.
Step 6
Completion
We will liaise with your solicitor and the buyers solicitor to see the transaction through to completion, which typically takes place within 4-6 weeks.

Callum White
Sales Manager - Bracknell
Callum followed his Dad into estate agency and has always had a passion for selling property. He started with work experience and went straight into the industry after leaving school, building on his experience in the local area over the past several years. Away from the office he enjoys watching and playing football with friends.
The thing I like best about my job is…
Having clients come back to me from a previous move and seeing the change in their lives, whether it be they’ve had a child and are now upsizing or the kids have flown the nest and they need to downsize.
Top of my bucket list is…
To go on a safari in South Africa.
My guilty pleasure is…
Escape rooms.
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
Mind reading.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
James Bond.
The person I’d most like to go for a drink with is…
Harry Potter.
Adele Buck
Sales Manager - Ascot
Adele has worked within a sales environment for many years and was a Branch Manager for a corporate estate agency prior to joining Duncan Yeardley, which gave her an excellent understanding of the property sales process and helping people move. She has lived locally for most of her life, apart from three years spent living and working in Munich, Germany. Adele’s son, Oskar arrived in 2019 and certainly keeps his parents busy outside of work, when they enjoy days out and travel.
The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given is…
To tackle the tough jobs first and the easy jobs last, that way you will get through the things you have to do a lot quicker!
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
A vet – until I found out that it wasn’t all about fluffy cuddles!
On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me…
Up at 6am with my young son supported by a large cup of coffee!
You might be surprised to know that…
I was once handcuffed and searched as a suspected threat to the royal family. You will be pleased to know that I was later released without charge after accidentally getting caught in the middle of a PETA campaign against the royals for using Canadian bears fur in the traditional guard hats.
The thing I like best about my job…
Are the people, whether that’s helping someone find their dream home, enabling their onward move or just offering some good advice that is well received and helps.
The person I’d most like to go for a drink with is…
My late father.
Nick Thring

If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
To be able to fly with endless energy and distance.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
An estate agent! Weird I know. At an earlier age I also remember wanting to be a car mechanic.
On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me…
Hitting the trails and getting lost in Swinley Forest on my mountain bike.
Top of my bucket list is…
To explore more of the British Isles in our motorhome named ‘Elvis’.
My worst fashion mistake…
Still must be a multi-coloured Gucci shell suit. Why they would ever make a piece of clothing like this!
The thing I like best about my job is…
Supporting our fabulous team by giving them the best tools and helping them thrive and develop their skills.

The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given is…
The harder you work, the luckier you are.
My favourite word in the English language is…
Potato.
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
Being invisible.
One of my funniest memories is…
Hiding a walkie talkie in my mums handbag. My brother and I then sat in the car when she went into a shop and started shouting with a little voice “help, this women has stolen me”. Everyone in the shop was looking round, including my mum wondering where the voice was coming from. We then started on the fart noises etc and got louder and louder. It was getting awkward for everyone by this point and the shopkeeper was getting angry. My mum finally realised what was going on and left the shop and all her shopping. We thought we were going to get told off, but she was in hysterics with us.
On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me…
Trying to convince my little ones it’s still bedtime, even if it isn’t.
The person I’d most like to go for a drink with is…
My grandad Bob.
