When does the starting price decrease?

When does the starting price decrease?

If an auction is unsuccessful due to lack of participation:

  • Third auction: Starting price automatically reduces by 20%.
  • Fourth auction: Starting price further reduces to reach a 35% total reduction from the original price.

Example: A property starting at €1,000,000:

  • Third auction: €800,000 (20% reduction)
  • Fourth auction: €650,000 (35% total reduction)

These reductions are automatic and do not require court intervention.
