Agree a sales method
APP Kirrane Auctioneering offers sale by private treaty; auction, public or online; and sealed envelope bid.
Marketing
Let APP Kirrane Auctioneering tailor make a marketing campaign to fit your property requirements:
Professional photographs will be taken and a brochure will be compiled with specific details of the property.
Premium advert on daft.ie
Standard adverts on myhome.ie, kirraneauctioneers.com, and associated sites including a leading UK property web site.
Advertise in the Galway Advertiser.
Sign at the property and directional signage from the main roads.
Display on both office windows of Galway and Mayo branches of APP Kirrane Auctioneering for maximum exposure to passing trade.
Arrange open viewings and private viewing appointments to fit around the vendor's schedule.
Email to all potential purchasers on the company's ever expanding database.
Agree to sell
The experienced agents will discuss the terms, explain the process, and when you are happy to make the decision to sell your chosen agent Kevin, Caroline, or Gerry will do all the necessaries to ensure you obtain the best possible price for your property in a timely manner. APP Kirrane Auctioneering can assist you to find a replacement home and negotiate on your behalf.
Certification required
As with all sales you will require a building energy rating certificate in order to offer your property for sale. APP Kirrane Auctioneering can advise you on a local assessor or can arrange this on your behalf.
It is also advisable at this point to ensure your local property tax has been paid, your water charges have been paid if you are on a local group water scheme, and the septic tank has been registered if applicable.
Appoint a solicitor
Engage a solicitor to look after the conveyancing of your property. APP Kirrane Auctioneering can recommend local reliable firms.
Offers
APP Kirrane Auctioneering brings offers to you. The team discuss the offers and options available — they work on your behalf and strive to get the best possible prices for the properties they offer for sale. If you are happy with the offer presented you can accept the offer.
Offer accepted
APP Kirrane Auctioneering collects a booking deposit from the purchasers and issues sales advice notes to solicitors of the vendor and the purchaser. This deposit is fully refundable until contracts are signed. Solicitors will invite the vendor to sign unconditional contracts. These contracts are firstly signed by the purchaser and then countersigned by the vendor. The balance of the 10 per cent deposit is then paid by the purchaser. At this point the contract is binding.
Completion
The closing date will be agreed between the solicitors in conjunction with the requirements of the vendor and the purchaser. The remainder of the money, 90 per cent, will be transferred to the vendor's solicitor in exchange for the signed legal documents, and full ownership and occupation will be legally transferred to the purchaser on the agreed closing date.
Take the next step
Remember APP Kirrane Auctioneering works on a set fee of €1,500 + VAT and operates on a no sale, no fee, basis. Call into the offices at 16b Sandyford Business Centre, Bohermore, Galway, or call 091-705555.
