Buyers must note this sale is through the Modern Method of Auction.

Bidders should review the Buyer Information Pack, Reservation Agreement and seek mortgage advice if required before bidding.
Practical drawbacks to consider: the flat is compact (approx. 440 sq ft) and in a high-crime, socially deprived neighbourhood classification, which may affect security perceptions and resale values. Service charges and ground rent are notable ongoing costs. A prudent buyer should inspect the property and complete full due diligence before participating in the auction.
