Property Auction Finance
Property auction finance is a fast, short-term funding solution designed to help investors complete property purchases within strict auction deadlines. In the UK, auction buyers are typically required to pay a 10% deposit immediately and complete the remaining balance within 28 days. Without pre-arranged finance, this timeframe can be difficult to meet.
At A2Z Bridging, we structure property auction finance UK investors rely on to secure residential, commercial and mixed-use properties quickly. Whether you are purchasing below market value, refinancing post-completion, or acquiring development opportunities, we arrange flexible auction funding tailored to your strategy.
Unlike traditional mortgages, auction finance is structured for speed. Because auction purchases operate on tight completion schedules, lenders assess deals based on asset value, exit strategy and overall viability rather than lengthy high street underwriting processes.

How Property Auction Finance Works
When buying at auction, time is critical. Therefore, having auction bridging finance agreed in principle before bidding significantly reduces risk.
The process typically follows these steps:
- Agreement in principle secured before auction
- 10% deposit paid on the day of purchase
- Valuation and legal work instructed immediately
- Completion within 28 days
- Exit via refinance or resale
Because speed is essential, auction finance is commonly arranged as a short-term bridging loan before transitioning to long-term funding such as a buy-to-let mortgage or commercial mortgage.
