Key Components of Disposal Costs in Kenya

The disposal cost estimate encompasses a range of expenses critical for the successful sale of repossessed assets, particularly under Kenyan auctioneering regulations. These include auctioneer fees, which are often a percentage of the sale price, typically ranging from 10% to 20%, as regulated by the Auctioneers Act and its practising rules. There are also costs associated with preparing the asset for sale, such as cleaning, minor repairs, or transportation to the auction site. If the asset requires secure storage prior to auction, these holding costs need to be factored in, which can accrue daily or weekly. Advertising and marketing expenses, essential for attracting a wide pool of potential buyers and achieving optimal prices, also contribute to the overall disposal cost. Furthermore, any statutory levies, permits, or taxes associated with the sale must be accounted for. Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd provides a comprehensive breakdown, ensuring no hidden charges.
