  • Ha! Yes I could very much see this happening too.

    When you say get financing in place, was it just a mortgage in principle? There's not much else you can do until you've won the auction, right?

    This place is a couple of streets over from us, so we know the type of house and the area really well. We are probably still going to get a surveyor round just to be certain all is ok, which could be ~£800 wasted in a few seconds if the bidding goes high, but that's the risk I guess.

  • Mortgage in principle and cash for deposit I think.
    Worth looking at what similar have sold for at auction vs the list price as they will be miles out, but if you know the area well I'm sure you've got a good idea what it's actually worth.
