    How it works

    Three phases. Nothing hidden in between.

    A Biddy sale runs on a schedule you publish and control. What we run is the auction — not the payment and not the transfer of title.

    1

    Exposure

    2–4 weeks

    The listing goes public with photos, floor plan and land-registry documents. Buyers view it remotely or in person, register, and lock their deposit. You decide how long this lasts and you can move the date at any time — everyone registered is notified with room to reconsider.

    2

    Bidding

    2–4 hours

    Sealed pre-bids surface at once and the floor is open. Every bid is visible with a name and a timestamp. A bid in the final minutes extends the clock, so nobody wins by arriving one second before the end.

    3

    Handover

    the same day

    The clock stops and the result is fixed: one winner, one price, recorded and sent to both sides. Every other deposit is released the same day. From here you continue with your own notary and your own bank — Biddy never holds the purchase money and never touches the title.

    Your controls

    Three dials, and they are all yours.

    An auction is not a fixed format you have to accept. You tune it to the property and to the kind of buyer you want in the room.

    The deposit

    You choose how much a bidder must lock up before they can raise a hand. Set it high and the room narrows to people who intend to complete — which is the single strongest signal that the winning price becomes the sale price.

    It is not the only signal. Biddy weighs bidder history and bidding behaviour alongside it, and stands as the arbiter when the two sides disagree.

    The calendar

    You set how long the property stays on exposure before bidding opens — and you can move that date whenever you need to.

    Nobody is caught out by it. Everyone already registered is notified in good time, with the choice to stay in or withdraw their application before the clock starts.

    The conversation

    Open the comments and let registered users ask about the property in public, or keep them closed. Either way, buyers can inspect remotely and decide without a viewing.

    Nothing here is anonymous. Every comment carries a real name, and everyone who registers accepts that what they write falls under the law of the relevant jurisdiction.

    For sellers

    An asking price is a guess.

    Set it too high and the listing goes stale for months. Set it too low and the first caller takes the difference home.

    An auction refuses to guess. You publish the lowest number you would accept, and everything above it is decided by people competing in the open — in a single afternoon.

    For buyers

    Everything you need before you raise a hand.

    You are not bidding blind, and you are not bidding against a stopwatch.

    Look before you commit

    Photos, floor plan and land-registry documents are published with the listing. Where the seller has opened comments, you can ask in public and read what others asked — under real names, not handles. Inspect remotely, or come and see it. Either works.

    Know your ceiling

    Our lending partner can underwrite you before the auction opens — how much you can borrow to buy, or borrow against the property once it is yours. You walk in knowing your limit instead of guessing at it.

    Lose fairly or not at all

    A bid in the final minutes moves the clock, so nobody takes the property by arriving one second before the end. If you do not win, your deposit is released the same day.

    Financing

    Buyers who arrive already funded.

    Our lending partner sees every published listing and the open information behind it. That lets them underwrite bidders before an auction opens — how much someone can borrow to buy a property, or borrow against it once it is theirs.

    A bidder who knows their ceiling bids differently. Fewer bids that lead nowhere, and a winner who can actually close.

    Safeguards

    Open does not mean unprotected.

    Six rules keep a public auction honest. They apply to every lot, without exception.

    Deposits with weight

    Nobody bids without locking funds first, and the seller sets how much. A deposit is proof of intent, never payment for the property — it comes back when the auction ends.

    Documents checked

    Title and land-registry records are verified before a lot is published, not after someone wins it.

    No last-second wins

    A bid inside the final minutes pushes the clock forward. The highest offer wins, not the fastest connection.

    A permanent record

    Every bid is written once and never edited. Both sides can replay the whole auction, minute by minute.

    Named, not anonymous

    Bids and comments carry a real identity. Everyone who registers accepts that what they write is subject to the law where they are.

    An arbiter in the room

    Biddy reads deposit levels, bidder history and bidding patterns, flags what looks wrong, and acts as arbiter when the two sides disagree.

    What it costs

    Ten euros to take part. 1.5% when it sells.

    No subscription and no listing tiers. Two charges, both known before you begin.

    Up front

    €10 to take part

    Ten euros to create an auction, ten to enter one. Held alongside your deposit, so there is nothing separate to pay.

    It is not refunded — not if the lot goes unsold, not if you withdraw, not if the winner walks away. It covers the verification and compliance work we do on every published lot.

    On completion

    1.5% when ownership transfers

    Nothing more until the property is genuinely yours. The fee falls due once both sides confirm the transfer of title — not when the hammer falls.

    If the sale never completes, it is never charged.

    The seller decides who carries the 1.5%
    1.5%Seller pays it all 1.5%Buyer pays it all 0.75%Split down the middle

    A seller who absorbs the fee makes bidding free to enter — which usually means more bidders, and a higher final price.

    In some arrangements our fee is covered by our lending partner instead, and costs you nothing at all.

    Find out what your home is actually worth.

    Not an estimate from a portal. A real number, from real buyers, on a date you choose.

    Biddy runs the auction and records the result. Payment and the transfer of ownership stay where they belong — between you, your notary and your bank.
