For some months, house prices have been on a downward trend but, generally, people still feel that the housing market offers good investment prospects as prices will inevitably rise again.

Auction properties often offer a good opportunity and, with the volume of properties available to buy at auction at the moment it may well be possible to secure a purchase at an advantageous price.

However, the process can be fraught, confusing and time consuming so we are launching a brand new service to help you through every stage.

Mullucks Wells are experienced auctioneers and with Tim Trembath we believe we have one of East Anglia's most able practitioners. We can bring you the benefit of our extensive knowledge and experience to help you find your next auction property and provide the support and advice you need to help you secure it.

Whether you are looking for a residential or commercial property in the South East or East Anglia, we will assist you in your search and until your purchase is completed.

In brief, our service includes:

• Informing you of relevant properties and auction dates
• Research of the area
• Visiting the properties with you
• Arrangement of surveys by local building surveyors
• Advice on legal arrangements
• Financial and mortgage advice
• Helping you to prepare for auction day
• Attending auctions and bidding on your behalf if required

The charges for this service will depend upon the level of involvement you require from us but an initial consultation and advice will be free of charge. If you require help finding a property, including site visits, there will be a flat rate charge. However, if we successfully bid on your behalf, our fee will represent a percentage of the purchase price.
