Abstract
The long haul from the initial instruction to offer the property for sale by auction is nearly over, but it is at this stage that the auctioneer must yet again check and double check all the facts and figures, together with every single matter that might in some way or other affect the outcome of the auction. As has been stated many times in the preceding chapters, the auctioneer has to be aware consistently of the need to be fully conversant with everything which has a bearing upon the success or otherwise of the auction. This manifests itself in the duty of the auctioneer to be fair and even handed with all parties to the proceedings, not just the vendor client. Over and above this requirement, there is always the overriding prime duty of care to the vendor client.
