Pre-bid risk check

Check public-data risks before you chase this lot.

Two signals already stand out. The £19 pack checks them against official sources, then adds planning, licensing, flood, sold-price context and our own repeat-lot history. It is not a legal opinion.

Prior auction appearance

This property appears to have been through auction before. Repeated listings can reveal pricing or legal friction.
