For readers unfamiliar with the process, here’s how property auctions typically work:
1. The bank or lender issues a default notice after several missed mortgage repayments.
2. If the homeowner fails to settle, the lender advertises the property in newspapers.
3. An auction date is set, and potential buyers bid for the property.
4. The highest bidder takes ownership, with proceeds used to clear the outstanding loan.
If reports are true, Aziad’s Kileleshwa house auction may soon follow this process.
