The "Daily Telegraph" Buying Bargains at Property Auctions

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £1.00
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Every week, hundreds of properties - both residential and commercial - are sold at auction in Britain. No longer the closed domain of property speculators and dealers, auction rooms are now filled by a growing proportion of private individuals looking for genuine bargains in the face of otherwise inflated prices in the property market. Property auctions are in author Howard Gooddie's blood. He comes from a family of auctioneers and was head of one of the country's leading auction houses. He has brought the gavel down on literally thousands of lots. In this fourth, updated edition of his best selling guide, he elegantly spells out just how straightforward the auction route can be and divulges the tips and practices of this still relatively unknown world. This guide features: How to find your bargain; Contracts; Finance; Bidding and winning your bargain; After the auction; Insider's guide to an auction house; Selling your property at auction Check-lists; and Directory of auction houses.
