Why Choose Fylde Coast Auctions?

The results speak for themselves, with 85% of the lots we take to auction selling, it makes sense to choose us. Unlike many other national and local agents we do not charge over inflated buyers premiums. Buyers are wise to these tactics and do not want to pay fees of up to ÂŁ6,000 to the auction house in addition to the purchase price.

Achieve the optimum value for your home What is the value of your home? Is it what an Estate Agent recommended? Is it what you would like to achieve? Or is it what someone is prepared to pay for it? It is only human to want to achieve the most money possible for a property, but we have to also consider is this realistic and more to the point will we ever get it? The true value of any property is what a buyer is prepared to pay.

Increase your potential purchasers Auction is designed to accommodate both private residential buyers as well as appealing to cash rich serious investors. By placing your property for sale by auction you are opening up your options. The aim of Auction is to get as many viewers through your front door as possible, stimulate competitive bidding and ensure you receive the optimum price.

8

It’s fast On acceptance of an offer, the buyer and seller exchange contracts and completion is normally within 28 days.

No more waiting months for a sale to go through and the uncertainty of the fact that it could, even once agreed, fall through. On the normal sales market once your property is under offer this may deter other potential buyers showing an interest. Then if the sale falls through you are back to square one.

Control You are in complete control, as you set a reserve price and the property CANNOT be sold for a penny below, without your authority. Many properties we take to auction achieve over their guide price.

We are now looking for additional lots for our next auction on June 7th 2017.

If you would like to speak to one of our dedicated auction team regarding a property that you may be thinking of placing for sale by auction, then please call us on 01253 752700 or email mail@fyldecoastauctions.co.uk

Computers Direct opened its doors in September of 1998 on St. Georges Avenue in Cleveleys. Almost 20 years on, still under the same management team, we have relocated to a new shop on Victoria Road West.

We have fitted the new shop out to suit our needs, increased the shop floor area and also given more space and resources to the workshop area. Over the years we have maintained a great reputation for our repair work and customer service. Our team of six experienced technicians are able to help you through purchasing or repairs, ensuring that you receive the best advice. All our technicians are fully conversant in all the current technology and can advise you of the best product for your needs.

Remembering back to when we first opened, the internet was in its infancy with 33k dial up modems and 14� old fashioned curved screen CRT monitors with Windows 95 being the norm. How things have changed, households now having fast ADSL broadband or superfast fibre to the cabinet broadband, Wi-Fi, and mobile phones having more processing power and memory than a desktop computer.

In 2004 Computers Direct became an Epson Express Centre and we service and repair Epson printers, along with providing a full ink range.

Back in 2002 the business was divided into Computers Direct as a home user supply and repair business and Fylde Computer Solutions Ltd (Fyldecom) as a dedicated business support and telecoms company.

Initially supporting small businesses in the area, Fylde Computer Solutions have evolved from providing broadband at the start of millennium to providing support and telecoms to small and medium sized businesses throughout the North West of England.

If you are in business and require a network server check over, or a telecoms audit to ensure that you are paying the best rates for your calls, then don’t hesitate to give the team at Fyldecom a call on 01253 490100.

CD writing had just started to become mainstream, however nowadays we have progressed through DVD writing to today’s video on demand. As time has gone by most people now use tablets and notebooks rather than desktop computers.

We have relocated

We still sell desktop computers but today its mainly to business and advanced gamers who require desktop computers.

Whether you require a new mouse, virus removal or a full repair Computers Direct is able to fulfil your requirements, call in and see our new shop and offices.

Over the years the business has evolved and we now service and repair all types of computers, printers, phones and tablets.

town centre and the surrounding neighbourhoods. The main beneficiaries of this money will be Brian House, the North-West Air Ambulance and Parkinsons UK. At the weekends before Christmas on Victoria Road West Santa and his Elves were nobly assisted by Shirley Eracleous and the Cleveleys Dream Team Singers whose versions of well-known Christmas carols and songs proved very popular. Thanks are also due to Cleveleys Tesco for a very generous donation of sweets for the children (and adults) and to Smiths Plant Hire who kindly lent a generator when the one on the sleigh had a sudden melt-down.

Rotarians on the evening collections were assisted by volunteers from the Friends of Trinity Hospice, Rotarians from the Poultonle-Fylde club and young people from the Blackpool Windmill Group.

Organiser Peter Kerekjarto of North Fylde Rotary said, “This is a record amount for our Christmas collection and we would like to express our gratitude to all concerned in the endeavour, whether by freely giving time or money.” He also spoke of the Club’s determination to do even better next year.
