Find your ultimate passion asset

If you’re looking for a niche asset as a one-off dream purchase or you’re looking to add to a collection, you’ve come to the right place. Buying on House of Assets is designed to be as seamless as it gets with clear, transparent listings and all the support you need whenever you need it.

THERE ARE TWO WAYS

to buy on House of Assets

Buy Now

When you’ve found the item you love on a Buy Now listing, you’ll pay a fixed price and buy it immediately.

Auction

For an item listed in an auction, you can place bids up to the price you can afford to pay until the auction ends.

BUYING WITH BUY NOW

is as easy as 1, 2, 3…

1. Search for something special

Take a seat and hit search to browse through our vast, carefully curated collections of nice assets that are available to buy now at a fixed price. New listings are added to our specialist categories every week.

2. Hit Buy Now

You’ve found it, you love it, you have to have it, so if the price is right, hit Buy Now and your item is secured. You’ll have the opportunity to liaise with your seller if you have any questions or specific delivery requirements.

3. Pay securely

All payments are processed securely by Stripe Connect, one of the world’s most respected payment providers. You’ll get an instant email confirmation with all the details of your purchase – all you have to do now is plan where you’ll keep it when it arrives.

BUYING AT AUCTION

is just as easy

1. Browse away

Search by keyword, seller name or item type to discover that special asset in the collection you’re interested in. Read through all the listing details and price guide to check this item ticks all the boxes.

2. Place your bid

You can choose to place a bid while you follow the auction or place your maximum bid so incremental bids can be made automatically on your behalf. This is where the excitement builds, so keep a cool head and only bid what you can afford to pay.

3. Settle up securely

If you win the auction, you’ll receive an email confirmation and a prompt to pay for your item. Stripe Connect payments mean your transaction is safe and sound. That’s it, you’ve won something very special.

Relax, it’s protected

From the moment you make your payment until it reaches you, rest assured it’s insured by the seller and protected in the event of any loss or damage. After that, it’s down to you to insure your new purchase – we’ve got you covered there too with specialist high-end insurance from Property Wealth Insurance. Contact us to talk about insuring your purchase.

We advise every member of the House of Asset community to read through our Online Marketplace Terms, Terms of Sale or Online Auction Terms before placing bids at auction or buying via a private listing. If you have any questions, please contact Customer Service.
