    Nothing wrong with buying at auction if you're clearly understanding of the risks and you've priced those risks into your offer.

    Probably not the safest channel to acquire property for the unexperienced.

    People see a quick buck, think they can get rid of the tenant, but can't. And thus they sell the property again.

    The property being Freehold isn't relevant OP! The tenant currently in the property is a different kettle of fish though!

    That banks don't want small mortgages. They are not going to go through that grief for a 75k mortgage. They would not have made a decision on it in a week either.

    It wouldn’t be from a standard bank; it would only be from an alternative lender and, as I said, would want to be for substantial multiples of 150 to be worthwhile.

    It seems that all auction reviews I have seen until now all over the web tells you to keep away but at the end the properties are still sold over and over again... strange

    Bought by people who know what they are doing and can afford the time and cost required to regularise the situation

    The warnings are for people who don't know what they're doing

    I’ve been buying and selling properties for 25 years, a few bought at auction. There is nothing strange about it apart from the fact that many bidders go into auctions not understanding the processes and difference between auctions standard property sales.

    I can tell you op, even with a discount and cash purchase, I wouldn’t touch this. The tenant is likely telling you what you want to hear, no one gladly moves from their home into a hostel. The seller knows that this property would be more appealing with vacant possession, if the tenant is still there, they couldn’t get her out. You could get mired in a protracted and expensive eviction.

    Why the tenant tell me what I want to hear, he is not the seller (he doesn't care).

    According to the receiver, the Bank knows that this property would be more appealing with vacant possession but they do not want to deal with an eviction as it can take minimum 7 months, therefore, they sell it as it is.

    have you experienced the same situation as you describe it?

    You see a house on Bidx1, which it appears didn't sell last time around. In that time you have managed to speak to the tenant and the receiver? Very peculiar. There is no receiver on that property, it is being sold by the bank as mortgagee in possession.

    How can you talk to a receiver when there is no receiver?

    Hi, I just want to have a constructive input in regards to an auction that I am interested to bid on.

    The Property is sold with a sitting tenant (Rent €11,400 per annum).
    There is a fixed-term tenancy agreement copy that was set since 2011 with the previous owner for one year.

    I spoke to Bidx1 who said according to the Bank who repossessed the property that the tenant is supposed to pay 950 per month but unfortunately is paying 277 (no reason why was provided).

    I am aware that in order to terminate the tenancy you need to give notice of 224 days if the tenancy is more than 8 years. However, if the tenant is not complying to pay the total rent, is it possible to terminate the tenancy quicker within 28 days’ notice, regardless of the length of their tenancy?

    Thanks

    Hi Parkhouse, the answer to your query around the rent paid may not be so mysterious. If the Tenant is on RAS or Rent Supplement, that 227pm may be their own personal contribution. Usually when a Bank repossess a property they appoint a Receiver. That Receiver usually appoints an agent who supplies the tenant, who then supplies either RAS or the rent supplement office with the Deed of Appointment and the new bank details and HEY!!!!. The rent gets paid. If the Bank did not give proof of ownership to RAS/RS, or if there was a long drawn out battle between the Bank and the previous owner, the RAS/RS payment may have been closed. If you do go ahead and buy it, get your paperwork in order and once you are the new owner you can register with the RTB and seek rent from RAS/RS or HAP

    The bank has not appointed a receiver. The legal documents are online. there is no deed of appointment of a receiver. the sale is not through a receiver. The new owner can't register as landlord without some basic information. None of which has been provided.

    If he is paying 227 and it’s in a rent pressure zone you are limited to raising it higher by more than 10 euro!!

    Once the new owner is the registered owner and has the deed of transfer then they are the legal owners of the property and can register the tenancy with the RTB and with both RAS and HAP

    I'm getting quite uneasy about the discussion of an identifiable specific property at this stage. The OP has been given quite a lot of solid advice so far so that should be enough
