Sell or buy UK commercial property at auction

Auction is one of the most effective routes to market for commercial property. Whether you're looking to sell a retail unit, dispose of licensed premises, or acquire commercial space for your business or portfolio, our auctions deliver a legally binding outcome within a fixed timescale.

We work with business owners, landlords, asset managers, and insolvency practitioners to bring commercial properties to auction across the UK, and our national online auction platform means your lot reaches a wide pool of active, registered buyers from the moment marketing opens.

If you're thinking about selling, book a free appraisal, and we'll talk you through what your commercial property could achieve. Buyers can browse our current lots and register to bid ahead of any upcoming auction.

What types of commercial property can I sell or buy at auction?

Retail units

High street shops, shopping centre units, and out-of-town retail parks all feature regularly in our auctions. Auction suits retail disposals well, as it creates competitive tension around the lot and removes the uncertainty of prolonged private treaty marketing. Tenanted and vacant units both attract strong buyer interest.

Offices

From single-floor suites to multi-storey office buildings, we bring office properties to auction for investors, owner-occupiers, and developers across the UK. Buyers can assess income potential directly from the legal pack before bidding opens, which makes office lots particularly straightforward to transact at auction.

Hotels and guesthouses

Our commercial auctions include boutique hotels, bed and breakfasts, and larger hospitality establishments. These lots attract a specialist pool of buyers, and auction provides a transparent, structured process for sellers who need a clean and certain exit.

Restaurants, cafes, and takeaways

We regularly auction food and beverage premises, from established eateries with fixtures and licences in place to vacant units offering a blank canvas for a new operator. This sector consistently draws strong interest from first-time business buyers as well as experienced hospitality operators.

Pubs and bars

Traditional community pubs, gastropubs, and licensed premises in town and city centre locations all perform well at auction. The format suits sellers who need certainty of completion, while buyers benefit from full disclosure of tenancy and licence details before bidding begins.

Leisure and healthcare facilities

We auction gyms, sports centres, GP surgeries, dental practices, care homes, and other specialist commercial premises. These are often niche assets that benefit from the national reach of our auction platform, connecting sellers with a targeted buyer pool that private treaty routes don't always reach.

Types of commercial property auction

Live Stream Auction

Our Live Stream Auction is conducted in real time by a live auctioneer, with bidders participating via our online platform, by telephone, or by proxy. Sellers benefit from the competitive energy of live bidding in front of a national audience.

Multi-Lot Timed Auction

Commercial properties in our Multi-Lot Timed Auction are marketed for several weeks before a 48-hour online bidding window opens. This gives buyers time to review legal packs and arrange finance, while sellers have the certainty of a defined, fixed endpoint.

Single-Lot Timed Auction

For individual commercial properties that benefit from a dedicated campaign, our Single-Lot Timed Auction offers 24/7 online bidding with a start and end date built around the seller's requirements.

Why sell commercial property at auction?

Auction offers commercial sellers a route to market that private treaty rarely matches for speed, certainty, or transparency.

  • A legally binding result on auction day – When the hammer falls, contracts are exchanged immediately. Buyers who do not complete face substantial financial penalties, which means fall-throughs are rare compared to private treaty sales.
  • Fixed, predictable timescales – Your property is marketed, auctioned, and sold within a defined period. There's no open-ended wait for an offer to materialise or a buyer to commit.
  • National reach from day one – Our online auction platform puts your commercial lot in front of registered, motivated buyers across the UK, not just those within reach of a regional office.
  • Full buyer transparency before bidding opens – Legal packs are available in advance, which reduces the risk of delays, late queries, and last-minute complications on completion day.
  • Competitive bidding reflects genuine market value – When multiple buyers compete openly for the same lot, the result is determined by real market demand rather than a single negotiated figure.

Book a free appraisal

Start by speaking with our team to book your free appraisal. We'll assess your property, give you an honest view of its auction potential, and recommend the most suitable format for your timescales and goals. There's no obligation and no cost.

Research and prepare

Browse our available commercial properties and identify lots that match your requirements. Arrange viewings, instruct a commercial surveyor, and ask your solicitor to review the legal pack well before the auction date.

Partner and Auctioneer

“Commercial property auction gives sellers something the open market rarely can: a fixed end date and a legally binding result. When the marketing is strong, and the legal pack is well prepared, competitive bidding follows naturally, and that competition is what drives the best outcomes.”
