Auction & Sales

Commercial and residential property sale through auction, private treaty, tender or expression of interest

"The success rate of 6.7% in 2023 is typical for the auction market, considering the pre-pandemic range of 1% to 6% success rate recorded from 2015 to 2019. Most of the non-landed listings sold were one to two-bedroom apartments located in the fringe and suburban regions, suggesting that private homes in these areas continued to offer a more palatable entry price." - Sharon Lee, Head, Auction & Sales

Achieve a fair market price for your property

Since 1955, Knight Frank has helped hundreds of property owners and investors buy and sell at auction. Over the 70 years, we have grown to be the leader in one of the most engaging modes of sale. Our monthly property auctions feature residential, commercial, and industrial properties that may come with unique options by owners, developers, financial institutions, and other intermediaries. 

Choose auction for speed and price transparency

The unique nature of auctions lends itself to be an ideal sales method when there is urgency to dispose of a property or when there is significant burden of accountability such as that placed on a public trustee. Through competitive bidding inherent in open ascending auctions, prices offered for the property increase with successive bids. While the buyer decides how high to bid, the seller only needs to sell when the price exceeds the seller's predetermined reserve price. This approach assures both buyers and sellers of property asset transfers at fair prices and without lengthy negotiations.

Knowledge and experience you can trust

Our team will provide the end-to-end service and expert advisory to meet the varying transaction needs of individual property owners, banks, financial institutions and government and statutory bodies to liquidators, public-listed companies, and trustees.

Testimonials

We appointed Knight Frank for the sale of a shophouse at Ang Mo Kio, The team secured interested parties to bid at the auction and sold the property at a price far higher than would have been achieved by private treaty. We are happy with the result and recommend auction as a mean to fetch higher prices.

We engaged Knight Frank for the sale of our shophouses at Dunlop Street. The team handled the sale efficiently and professionally. The co-owned properties were knocked down above our reserve price in an open, fair, transparent, and competitive bidding process. We could not have asked for a better mode of sale.

Our family home was sold by auction withing two months of our first meeting with Knight Frank Auction team. The process was smooth and deftly managed by the team. Potential buyers were present to bid in a transparent manner. Knight Frank was able to secure a price that was $70,000 above our reserve price.
