Property type: Detached House

Reason for Auction: Insurance claim

Seller: Owner

Guide price: £150,000 – £200,000

Sold price: £220,000

The 1970’s detached house was in excellent condition, but due to a crack drain, the rear of the house had suffered sever structural damage.

With structural engineers report in hand, it advised the rear elevation needed taking down, new strip foundation and drains to be fitted, along with the rebuilding. Not a job for the faint-hearted, and was more suited for a builder/developer.

The local Norwich family who owned the property had already moved out as the house structure was dangerous, and reached a financial settlement with the insurance company, on the understanding the property went straight to Norwich auction with an agreed reserve and a percentage payment to the insurer over and above reserve price.

This was a good result for the vendor and also protected the insurer’s interest. With a closed guide of £150,000 – £200,000, these lots are challenging to predict the value on the day.
Spirited auction bidding saw the hammer fall at £220,000 to a local builder. That’s the kind of result Sell by Auction team in Norwich can deliver Maximum Results for you
