PLEASE READ IMPORTANT NOTICE



Prospective purchasers must not rely on the guide price as a valuation of the property. The guide price is to indicate the likely reserve which may be set at the time of marketing. Prospective purchasers should make regular checks in case the guide price is varied, as the reserve price can either be above or below the quoted guide price.

Depending on the level of competition the eventual hammer/sale price of the property may be above or below the guide price, and therefore the final expected sale price is not necessarily expected/presumed to be the guide price.

The reserve price is confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. This will be set very close to the auction date. If the reserve price is to be changed then the auctioneers will adjust the guide price to reflect this.

For any clarity on guide prices and reserve please telephone the auctioneers and we will be happy to clarify any queries you may have.
