If the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, an exclusivity period begins in relation to that property. The successful bidder is contractually required to exchange on the property on or before the expiry of 20 working days from the end of the auction (unless otherwise stated in the "Other Key Info" section in the listing above). All properties sold by conditional auction are sold subject to a reservation fee which is clearly stated in the terms and conditions attached to the property and in the bidding box before a bid is placed. The reservation fee is payable in addition to the final purchase price and is received on a non-refundable basis, subject to the terms of the Reservation Agreement. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the winning buyer is automatically charged a reservation fee and agrees prior to making their bid, to pay any outstanding amount of the property reservation fee immediately at the end of the auction. The auctioneer will be authorised to sign the reservation agreement on both the buyer’s and seller’s behalf. If by the seller’s act, exchange does not occur on or before the expiry of 20 working days from the end of the auction (unless otherwise stated in the "Other Key Info" section in the listing above), the reservation fee shall be fully refunded to the buyer. If the buyer fails to exchange on or before the expiry of 20 working days from the end of the auction (unless otherwise stated in the "Other Key Info" section in the listing above), they will forfeit the full amount of the reservation fee.Fees paid to the Auctioneer may be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property and be included in the calculation for stamp duty liability. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative.
