The auction could be as a result of distress for rent, a court order, sometimes known as a writ of attachment, or realization of property, as in the event of a mortgage company or a bank retrieving their money.
According to the Auctioneers Act, complaints must be made within a year of the incident. According to the Act, an auctioneer is prohibited from acting dishonestly, immorally, violently, or maliciously when carrying out a request to attach property. In a similar vein, it is the auctioneer’s responsibility to have the property valued to safeguard the owner’s interests.
The debtor may object to the auction if there is no valuation. The requirements protect the debtor’s interests, and those who are familiar with them can ask to halt the auction if they can show that a violation of the provisions was made.
