DEFINITIONS OF GUIDE PRICE AND RESERVE PRICE

GUIDE PRICE
An indication of the Sellers's current minimum acceptable price at Auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist prospective Buyers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the Seller and the Auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the Seller at any time up to the day of the Auction in light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see definition below). Both the guide price and reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the Auction.

RESERVE PRICE
The Seller's minimum acceptable price at Auction and the figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the Seller and Auctioneer. Both the guide price and reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the Auction.

SALES CONDITIONS AND CONTRACT
The Sales Conditions and Contract will be available for inspection at the Auctioneers' office and at the Solicitors during normal office hours in the 7 days prior to the auction. They will not be read out at the auction, but prospective purchasers will be deemed to have read them and to buy in full knowledge of their contents.
