Auctioneera is a specialist residential sales estate agency. We focus singularly on being the logical option for selling residential property in Ireland. We do this by offering the best property expertise, technology, and service at an unrivalled price. We are by far Ireland’s best priced estate agency charging a fixed fee of €1995+VAT for a full, no-compromise estate agency service. This contrasts with high fee auctioneers who charge a percentage of the final sales price of a property, typically costing several thousand Euro.

Our fee is only payable if and when the property sells and is taken from the proceeds of the sale i.e. there is no out of pocket expense whatsoever incurred by our clients. Our low fee means that our vendors retain the maximum possible amount of money from the sale and do not dissipate their equity in high estate agency costs. If you are considering selling a property, make sure to meet one of our experienced estate agents for a free, no-obligation consultation & valuation of your property.

“We want to really offer property buyers and sellers in Ireland a genuine alternative to the massively overpriced status quo. We have invested heavily in building a platform that we feel will transform how property is transacted in Ireland. We want to return literally tens of million Euro per annum in unnecessary estate agency fees to property sellers. This is our vision and we are working hard to realise it every day.”
