The Missing Piece to a Faster Sale: Bradleys Launch Auction Showcase Event

- Wed 22 Jul 2026

Bradleys Estate Agents is inviting property and landowners across the South West to discover a quicker, more certain route to selling with its forthcoming Auction Showcase Event on 29th September 2026.

For many sellers, one of the biggest frustrations of moving is the time it takes to complete a sale. In today's market, attracting a buyer is taking an average of 65 days, and in many areas that figure continues to rise. Once a buyer has been found, the conveyancing process can take a further 18 to 20 weeks on average before completion.

When combined, sellers could be facing a timeline of six to eight months or more from marketing their property to actually receiving the proceeds from the sale.

For those looking to move quickly, whether that’s to release equity or perhaps settle an estate, dispose of an investment property or sell a parcel of land (large or small), auction could provide the missing piece to a faster sale.

Why Choose Auction?

Selling by auction offers a clear and structured process that can dramatically reduce uncertainty.

Unlike traditional sales, where transactions can be delayed by broken chains, mortgage issues and changing buyer circumstances, auction provides greater commitment from buyers and a defined completion timeframe once a successful bid has been secured.

This makes auction an increasingly popular choice for sellers seeking speed, security and confidence.

Powered by 30 Bradleys Offices

What sets the Bradleys Auction Showcase Event apart is the unrivalled reach of the company's extensive network.

With all 30 Bradleys offices across Devon, Cornwall and Somerset actively involved in promoting the auction, every lot will benefit from exposure to a substantial audience of potential buyers, investors, developers and landlords.

This collaborative approach not only creates a diverse selection of opportunities for buyers but also ensures sellers benefit from maximum marketing exposure across the region and beyond to the thousands of buyers seeking a purchase through auction.

No Commission Fees

Bradleys is also offering a refreshingly transparent fee structure.

Rather than charging commission based on the sale price achieved, sellers simply pay a one-off set-up fee, allowing them to take advantage of professional marketing, expert auction advice and access to a motivated buyer pool without the concern of percentage-based selling fees.

Is Your Property Suitable?

The Auction Showcase Event is seeking a wide variety of properties and land opportunities, including:

Small redundant land parcels or larger areas no longer wanted
Development land and building plots
Renovation and refurbishment projects
Investment and buy-to-let properties
Probate and inherited homes
Vacant properties
Commercial premises
Properties with planning potential
Unique or non-standard construction homes

If you're keen to achieve a sale more quickly than the traditional route allows, auction could be the ideal solution.
