This week, Simon talks all about property auctions, and gives you his ten personal do's and don't's that'll help you to get the properties you want at far lower prices, and help you to avoid making the cardinal errors that so many people make at auction.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The number one reason for selling a property at auction is to get it sold quickly! Buyers exchange contracts on the very day they bid, so the whole process is extremely streamlined.

A low guide price isn't the purchase price. Bear in mind that these low guide prices are different to the reserve prices, so don't assume the lower price will be the one you'll pay.

Try not to get too emotionally attached to the bidding. Sometimes you can end up paying far more than you wanted to in the first place.

Make sure you do your research and your due diligence before making nay bids. How much is it worth now, and how much will it cost you to get it up to scratch? All these factors should give you a figure - make sure you don't pay over this figure.

BEST MOMENTS

'If you're the successful bidder, then the day you bid, you exchange contracts'

'Investors buy because they think they can get a deal'

'If it was such a good property then they should have bought it before the auction'

'What's the maximum price you can afford to pay?'
