Auction vs Private Sale
Auction
- An auction is a four week campaign where prospective purchasers come together at the conclusion to bid on your property with the highest bidder buying the property (subject to the reserve price being met).
- More transparent way of selling your home
- Competitive bidding, which means there are no price barriers
- A definite sale is made (assuming the reserve price is reached)
- Scheduled open for inspections
- Maximum exposure for maximum market impact
- A set date of sale encourages potential buyers to act quickly and creates urgency
- Identifies the most likely buyer to negotiate with, if not sold at Auction
- No ‘cooling off’ period and selling terms that are set by the vendor.
Private Sale
A private sale is when a house is offered for sale at a negotiated price. The vendor, in conjunction with the agent, will set a price and negotiate with purchaser/s until a mutually agreeable price is reached. Unlike auction, the potential buyers do not know what others may be offering for the property.
- Time to consider offers by potential purchasers
- The ability to extend the time for which your home is for sale
- Potential purchasers must make offers for your property 'blind', without knowing what other buyers think it is worth
- Can often take a longer time to sell your home compared to an auction
- If the price you set is too high, there is a possibility that the property won't sell and will risk becoming stale in the market.
- If the price you set it too low, you will have missed out on maximising the selling price
- The buyer has cooling-off rights with private treaty and can therefore withdraw from the contract without penalty.
