Registration
Buyers will be required to register before bidding. Photographic identification will be required (e.g. passport or modern driving licence) plus a current utility bill (within the last six months).
Sales particulars
Any plans, photographs, areas or schedules within the catalogue, whilst prepared as carefully as possible, are for guidance only, are not necessarily to scale, and do not form part of any contract. Although they are believed to be correct, their accuracy cannot be guaranteed. Neither the vendors nor the agents nor any person in their employ, give, or are entitled to give, any representation or warranty in relation to the properties or any part thereof.
Wayleaves, easements and rights of way
The land is sold subject to and with the benefit of all existing rights, including rights of way, whether public or private, light, support, drainage, electricity supply and other rights, easements, quasi-easements and all wayleaves whether referred to or not in these particulars. Timber, sporting and minerals all are included within the sale of the freehold.
Guide price
An indication of the seller’s current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
Reserve price
The seller’s minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell.The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
Liability of the bidder
The successful bidder will have entered a legally binding contract upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer. Before bidding at auction it is advisable to obtain the legal documents and consult a solicitor.
Deposit
Each purchaser will be required to pay a deposit of 10% of the hammer price, subject to a minimum deposit of £2,000.This deposit will only be accepted by Banker’s Draft, Building Society cheque or a personal cheque. Cash or card payments will not be accepted.
Administration charge
An administration charge of £250 + VAT per lot will be payable by the purchasers to the agents upon exchange of contracts. A VAT receipt will be issued the day following the auction. These arrangements will include pre-auction and post-auction purchases.
Insurance
The successful purchaser of each lot will be responsible for insuring the property from the fall of the hammer.
Bidding
Each property will be offered individually by the auctioneer. It is the responsibility of the prospective purchaser to ensure that their bid is clearly seen. 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.The vendor reserves the right for TW Gaze to bid on their behalf up to the reserve.
Sales prior to auction

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.
