The minimum deposit in respect of any lot is 10% of the purchase price or £1,000, whichever is the higher. Personal and company cheques will not be accepted under any circumstances. All Banker’s Drafts or Building Society cheques should be made payable to Lambert & Foster. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL PROPERTY AUCTION DEPOSITS BE ACCEPTED IN CASH.

Any prospective purchasers are strongly advised to satisfy themselves that such are in working order.
