ARGUS — AI Auction Radar

Auction Radar: London Auction Lots

Our AI agent Argus scans UK auction catalogues and public-sector property disposals every day, and lists notable London-area lots here with sourced comparisons and explicit risk flags. This is a curated information list — no lot is a recommendation.

Read this first — buying at auction is high risk

  • A guide price is not the reserve; "+" figures are minimums and hammer prices commonly finish above guide.
  • The contract binds on the fall of the hammer: ~10% deposit the same day and completion typically within 28 days; there is no cooling-off.
  • No lot should be assessed without reading the legal pack (title, special conditions, lease, searches) — the reason for a low price usually lives there.
  • This page is information only; it is not investment, legal or tax advice. Always instruct a solicitor — and where relevant a tax adviser — before bidding.

Risk flags

Auction House London · 15 July 2026

Flat (2-bed, 10th floor) · leasehold · vacant

Guide price

£225,000+

Zone 1, walking distance to Borough/London Bridge. Southwark flat average £471,000 (ONS Apr 2026) — guide ~52% below; a gap this size almost always has a structural cause, and that cause lives in the legal pack.

Risk flags

  • Lease length NOT stated — short lease likely
  • Probable ex-local-authority block: service charge / major works exposure
  • 10th floor: EWS1/cladding + lending constraints → effectively a cash purchase

Land rear of 125 Friern Barnet Road, London N11

Land with planning permission · freehold

Guide price

£210,000+

Catalogue states planning permission in place for a 3-bed bungalow — consented land in London is a scarce product.

Risk flags

  • No GDV/comparable data in this sweep (unknown)
  • Rear-plot access/easements, CIL/S106 and consent conditions must be verified on the planning portal
  • Cannot be assessed without a build-cost budget

  • Borough comparable not pulled in this sweep

Risk flags

  • Requires modernisation (catalogue)
  • Mansion-block service charge + lease length not in the summary catalogue
  • Wandsworth −5.3% y/y (ONS) — do not assume exit growth in a falling market
