5. Irrevocable purchase offer 5.1 Procedure for finalizing offers at the auction base price
The combined effect of the crediting of the security deposit, the formalization of registration for the auction – with express acceptance of the general and specific conditions of sale, published online at www.gobidreal.it – and the sending by the user of all the required supporting documentation, as specified above in point 4.2.1, will be considered equivalent to an irrevocable purchase offer at the price set as the auction base price for each sale attempt and will constitute, in itself, a binding commitment to purchase by the user.
This offer will be formalized on the platform directly by the Mandatary by means of an online bid, on behalf of the first user who has completed the finalization procedure described above.
Where there are multiple participants who have formalized their irrevocable purchase offer, in accordance with the methods described above, and none of the bidders makes a bid on the Platform, the best bidder and therefore provisional successful bidder will be the one who, first, in chronological order:
- has carried out the aforementioned procedure.
The Mandatary will take care to inform all bidders in any manner as to whether or not they are the best bidders at the time of formalization of the aforementioned irrevocable purchase offer.
5.2 Submission of offers for increase of the base price. Formulation of bids The offer formalized for the first bidder may be exceeded by higher bids, made by any enabled user.
The user who wishes to be the best bidder (and therefore provisional successful bidder) must have made the highest offer at the end of the online auction.
Clearly, where there are multiple participants who make bids on the offer at the auction base price, even the user recognized as "first bidder" may compete for the award of the lots by making bids on the current price.
In order to be awarded the lot(s) on sale, users will be invited to increase the price indicated in the auction (and therefore to make at least one bid) in the following ways:
5.2.1 Static offer By "static offer" is meant a bid at the price published online, plus a predetermined minimum bid.
5.2.2 Maximum offer (Proxy Bid):
By "proxy bid" is meant an offer at the maximum amount. It corresponds to the maximum figure that the user is willing to offer for each lot. The value of the proxy bid is entered manually by each bidder.
Until the maximum offer made by the user is exceeded by a higher offer, that same user will be the best bidder and therefore provisional successful bidder.
The current price will automatically adjust based on the amount of the predetermined bids, until reaching the value set as "maximum offer".
The value of the maximum offer (proxy bid) made by a user will not be visible to other users.
5.3. Validity of offers In any case (static offer – maximum offer – free offer), offers will be considered valid only if submitted during the auction period.
5.3.1 Extra time If a winning offer is made in the 5 minutes preceding the closing of the auction, the time available to make another offer will be extended by a further 5 minutes from the last bid received. And so on, for each winning offer received within the 5 minutes of extra time, until the conclusion of the available time.
In the event of extra time, 5 minutes must pass without any additional offer being recorded from the last bid received, before the auction can be definitively concluded.
Automatic bids in the case of a maximum offer (proxy bid) will also be considered winning offers.
5.4. Award of lots At the end of each auction solution, following an investigative phase, the best bidders will be sent a confirmation of provisional award pursuant to art. 107 of the Bankruptcy Law, against which they will be required to make payments by the deadline established in the specific conditions of sale.
The provisional award will be attributed to the competitor who has submitted the highest offer for each lot, or, in the absence of further bids, to the bidder who has been recognized as the first, in chronological order, to have completed the finalization procedure of the irrevocable purchase offer described in point 5.1.
In the event of award, the sale price must be paid in full by bank transfer made out to the procedure within the terms established in the specific conditions, failing which the deposit will be forfeited and definitively lost.
The deed of sale will be stipulated by notarial deed in accordance with the methods established by the Principal (described in point 11, Transfer of ownership)
The offers submitted are binding and constitute a formal purchase commitment. If the successful bidder does not pay the consideration within the terms established in the specific conditions of sale, or if the award should lapse, the sale will be automatically resolved and the deposit will be retained, in accordance with the methods established in the "Security Deposit" section. In such case, the award will be attributed successively, in favor of the next best bidder, who has completed the procedure described in point 5.1 or made a bid, on the basis of what is illustrated in point 5.2.
5.5 Other provisions Where required by law, the Principal, as manager of the sale procedure, may exercise the power provided by art. 107 fourth paragraph of the Bankruptcy Law, and suspend the sale in the event of receipt of an improved irrevocable purchase offer for an amount not less than ten percent of the offered price
In any case, GOBID INTERNATIONAL AUCTION GROUP S.r.l. reserves the right to suspend the auction or the award of lots in agreement with the Principal.
6. Obligations of the PrincipalPursuant to art. 107 of the Bankruptcy Law, the Principal undertakes to give notice by notification to each of the mortgage creditors or those otherwise having a lien at least 20 days before the date set for the conclusion of each sale attempt, and to inform the Delegated Judge and the Creditors' Committee of the outcome of each sale attempt, filing the relevant documentation with the Court Clerk.
The Principal declares that any registrations relating to pre-emption rights, registrations of foreclosures and conservatory seizures and any other encumbrance on the real estate put up for sale will be cancelled pursuant to art. 108 of the Bankruptcy Law once the sale has been executed and the price fully collected. Unless otherwise provided in the specific conditions of sale, all formalities for cancellation will be carried out at the expense of the successful bidder.
7. Buyer's Premium
The fee due to the Mandatary will be exclusively borne by the buyer and indicated with the words Buyer's Premium. It will be calculated on the award amount of the asset, in accordance with the methods indicated in the specific conditions of sale.
8. Charges The notarial charges, legal taxes and all expenses relating to the sale, fiscal and otherwise, will be borne by the buyer. Communication regarding the exact amount of the charges and their correct specification must be made by the Principal as soon as possible.
The Principal must provide accordingly, taking into account the tax regime of the transaction and any facilities that the purchaser intends to use. The Principal will therefore be required to verify whether the transaction is subject to VAT or registration tax and to specify, if applicable, whether it intends to use the reverse charge.
At the end of the sale, the Agent will finally ask the successful bidder whether it intends to use the first-home benefit or other tax benefit and inform the Principal accordingly, so that it can calculate the exact amount the purchaser will be required to pay in taxes.
The successful bidder must pay the expenses within the deadlines indicated in the specific sale conditions.
9. Security deposit Participation in the auction is conditional on payment of a mandatory security deposit defined in the specific sale conditions.
Before being enabled to participate in the auction, participants must pay the amount set out above by bank transfer or, where provided for in the specific conditions, by credit card through the platform. Payments must be made as set out in the specific sale conditions.
The deposit must be credited no later than the auction deadline.
For payment by bank transfer, it is recommended to make a BIR-type transfer (high-value payment transfer)
If auction participants do not win any asset, the deposit will be returned within 20 business days of the award, without interest.
In the event of award of one or more lots, the security deposit will be returned after the purchaser has completed the transfer of ownership of the real estate purchased at auction by notarial deed, subject to authorization provided by the Principal. In such case, the security deposit may be retained both to cover any charges attributable to the Procedure, at the Principal's discretion, and to cover any other services provided by the Agent.
If the security deposit is paid by credit card, the deposit will be collected on the Agent's current account, which will return the amount so retained as described above.
If the purchaser is awarded at least one lot at auction, the Agent may, in agreement with the Principal, deduct the deposit from the total amount owed by the purchaser.
If, in the event of award, after paying the deposit, the bidder does not complete the purchase within the deadlines set out in the specific sale conditions, as regards both the award price and the Buyer’s Premium and any additional charges, the sale will be automatically terminated and the deposit will be retained as liquidated damages.
10. Payments The provisional successful bidder of one or more lots must comply with the specific auction conditions, which will specify the deadlines for payment of both the awarded lots and the Buyer’s Premium due as well as additional charges, and the related compensation clauses in the event of failure to comply with the said conditions.
All payments must be made in full exclusively by bank transfer, unless otherwise provided in the specific conditions. The details will be specified upon the user's receipt of the provisional award confirmation.
If payment of the amounts due is not completed within the established deadlines, in agreement with the Principal, the sale will be automatically terminated and the security deposit will be retained as liquidated damages, with consequent forfeiture of the award.
11. Transfer of ownership Ownership will be transferred only after full payment of the award price and expenses, as provided in the specific sale conditions, by notarial deed in the manner established by the Principal, unless otherwise indicated in the specific sale conditions.
In the case of judicial sales, the Principal will finally arrange to notify the Delegated Judge so that the latter in turn arranges for cancellation of adverse registrations on the properties being transferred pursuant to Art. 108 of the Bankruptcy Law, as indicated in Art. 6.
After the deadlines provided for payments in the specific sale conditions have elapsed, in the event of failure to complete the transfer of ownership, the sale will be automatically terminated and the amount paid by the successful bidder as Buyer’s Premium will be retained by the Agent as liquidated damages. The amount paid by the successful bidder as security deposit will, however, be retained in accordance with the rules set out in the Security Deposit section.
