Bidders and potential bidders must be duly registered on the LEILOSOC® website before starting any bid.

When creating an account on the leilosoc.com platform, all identification elements required for billing and/or preparation of the Promissory Purchase and Sale Contract must be included, such as name, address/headquarters, ID number/Citizen Card or Permanent Certificate and NIF or NIPC.

Upon completation of registration, an e-mail account confirmation will be requested. Confirmation is required to validate the requested e-mail and be allowed to bid.

The bidder assumes the veracity of the data provided, as well as obligations and responsibilities arising from such act, namely to acquire the good(s) for the price offered, in accordance with the law and these General Conditions of Sale.

The assets are sold in the physical and legal conditions in which they are in. LEILOSOC® declines any responsibility regarding the assets’ preservation or functioning state.

The Decree-Law 84/2021 - "Consumer Protection" which regulates rights of the consumer in the purchase and sale of digital goods, content and services, pursuant to article 4, paragraph 1, subparagraph a) does not apply to sales made in the scope of liquidation of assets in insolvency proceedings or in proceedings executive. The bids made are
binding, and it is prohibited to request the cancellation of any bid.

All online auctions have a period of visits/inspection of the assets predefined or by appointment. When the visits/inspection period is selected, the date, hour and address are published in the online auction or lot page section. When the visits/inspections are by appointment, you must contact LEILOSOC®, to schedule a visit. The buyer is responsible for the inspection of the property, and the lack of this analysis cannot be imputed to LEILOSOC®.

The auction will occur in the period published in the auction area. It has a date and hour of beginning and a date and hour of ending.

In the auction’s last 5 minutes, every new bid restarts the countdown for another 5 minutes. E.g., if the auction is schedulled to end at 5 p.m. and someone bids at 4.58 p.m., the auction will automatically be extended for an additional 5 minutes, ending at 5.03 p.m., and so on. The auction ends when there are no more bids within the remaining time.

All the assets at auction are identified with a descending timer in hours, minutes and seconds.

The bidder, by bidding, is responsible for his/her acts. This includes acquiring the lot for the offered value, in accordance with the law and these Conditions of Sale.

Each lot in the Online Auction has three values:

• Estimate Value: value from which the asset is considered sold to the highest bidder.

• Opening Value: value from which bids are accepted in order to reach the Estimate Value. Sometimes, this value is inferior to the Estimate Value. If the Estimate Value is not reached, it’s up to the Insolvency Administrator to decide whether to accept or decline the highest offer.

• Current Bid: value of the highest bid, whilst the auction is still on going.

The minimum bids for an Online Auction are:

• € 50,00 for lots with an “Estimate Value” equal or inferior to € 500,00;

• € 100,00 for lots with an “Estimate Value” between € 501,00 and € 5.000,00;

• € 500,00 for lots with an “Estimate Value” between € 5.001,00 and € 10.000,00;

• € 1.000,00 for lots with an “Estimate Value” between € 10.001,00 and € 50.000,00;

• € 2.000.00 for lots with an “Estimate Value” between € 50.001,00 and € 100.000,00;

• € 5.000.00 for lots with an “Estimate Value” between € 100.001,00 and € 250.000,00;

• € 10.000,00 for lots with an “Estimate Value” superior to € 250.000,00.

The bidders will be notified, by email, in case there is a bid higher than theirs. LEILOSOC® declines any responsability in regards to eventual email delays, as the emailing delivery and reception service is not LEILOSOC’s® responsability.

All bids (that were not the winning bid) are automatically archived.
