As a Probate Law Firm we have a legal & moral obligation to attain the best price we can when selling property on behalf of an estate.

We had a private offer of £85,000 for a property in North Shields.

Although the offer seemed fair with regards to previous estate agent valuations, we'd had success with Hammer Price Homes on another property, so the client decided to list the property on their online property auction website.

We agreed to set the reserve at £85,000 knowing that this price was achievable.

When the 28 day auction closed it had attracted 9 bidders, 40 bids and more importantly a winning bid of £109,000, some 28% higher than the best offer we had prior to the auction.

I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Hammer Price Homes from both an effectiveness and professional point of view.

More importantly, the client was extremely pleased with the service provided.

We have had great success using the Hammer Price Homes online auction which has time and time again significantly exceeded local agent valuations. Their process provides the transparency we need to satisfy our obligation to test the market thoroughly and maximise on price.

We recently marketed a property in Potters Bar that local agents had valued at £285,000. Our client had received a direct offer of £290,000 for the property which he was considering accepting. We advised our client to list the property with Hammer Price Homes, setting the reserve at £290,000.

When the auction closed after 28 days it had attracted 101 bids from 7 different bidders. The winning bid was £381,000, 34% higher than the local agent valuation. Our client was extremely happy with the result and service and I would gladly recommend the Hammer Price Homes online auction.

As a private client practitioner, I regularly advise executor/administrator clients in relation to probate property sales, where the need to achieve the highest possible price is of paramount importance. Hammer Price Homes’ transparent and well-worked online auction process is the perfect solution.

It ensures that properties are sold for the highest possible price every time (and quickly), and it also enables executors/administrators to demonstrate to beneficiaries that all reasonable steps have been taken to achieve the same.

The procedure operated by Hammer Price Homes worked very well.  A difficult property that could have taken a long time to sell was sold quickly and for substantially more than local agents anticipated. I would have no hesitation in using your service again.

I’m really happy with everything, and so are the beneficiaries. I will be using you again. I also tell others too. A very good service and process.
