The auctioneer will end each sale by offering the property three times at the highest bid and upon the fall of the hammer no further bids will be accepted.

Sales prior to auction

If you are intending to bid at the auction for a specific lot we recommend that you speak to the agents’ office to ensure that the property is still available.

The Auction Team

An Introduction to TW Gaze TW Gaze was established more than 150 years ago and is renowned for delivering consistent professional advice as well as unrivalled knowledge and experience in all aspects of its business.

An independent and dynamic firm, it holds dear to the traditional values upon which it was established, but is also at the forefront of new technology to ensure the best is always delivered. Whether you are an existing client or new to TW Gaze, you can be assured of quality, bespoke advice from people with expertise in their field.

The areas this fine old firm cover include residential, commercial

and rural matters, licensed trade, and last, but by no means least, a thriving auction room, which offer sales of over 2,000 lots every Friday and 22 specialist Saturday sales throughout the year.

TW Gaze is a firm which has grown from its rural roots to a multidiscipline business, with excellence as its benchmark and offering The Complete Service.

The Auction Team Land and property auctions have been an important part of TW Gaze’s business since it was founded in 1857. For many years selling by auction was considered almost the only way to sell, but has now become a more specialised, niche market. As economic conditions have become more challenging, vendors need as much as possible in their favour to ensure they achieve a successful sale.

The auction process is often the best way of achieving this, as it is both transparent and cost-effective, and may well be the best way to achieve the optimum result for your property. The lots offered are varied, including renovation projects, building plots, barns for conversion, agricultural land and amenity land. This diversity attracts a broad range of buyers to the auctions including builders, developers, private buyers and farmers.

TW Gaze acts for a wide range of clients, including law firms, banks, executors, companies and private individuals, selling residential and rural properties. Recognised as leading specialists in auctions, they are determined to achieve the best results for their clients. The dedicated auction rooms in Diss town centre provide the only forum of its kind along the Norfolk/Suffolk border.

The property auctions are held at least three times a year and TW Gaze is constantly searching for interesting residential and rural properties for inclusion in their sales. Graeme Taplin or Mike Sarson will be pleased to provide a valuation and advice on the suitability of your property for auction.
