The Legal Mandate and Professional Standards for Kenyan Auctioneers
In Kenya, the practice of auctioneering is strictly regulated to protect the public and ensure fair trading. Auctioneers must be licensed by the Auctioneers Board of Kenya (ABK), a body established under the Auctioneers Act, 2010. This Act mandates that only individuals and firms holding valid licenses are permitted to conduct public auctions. The licensing process involves rigorous vetting to ensure applicants possess the necessary qualifications, experience, and ethical standing. Licensed auctioneers are bound by a code of conduct that governs their operations, including advertising, conducting sales, handling proceeds, and ensuring compliance with legal requirements such as proper notification periods and public advertisement of sales. Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd operates with full compliance to the Auctioneers Act, 2010, and the directives of the ABK. Our operations are transparent, and we meticulously document every step of the auction process, from property valuation to the final sale, ensuring all legal prerequisites are met, thereby safeguarding our clients against any potential legal challenges and ensuring the integrity of the auction.

Our expertise spans the auctioning of movable assets, including vehicles, machinery, furniture, and general goods, as well as immovable properties such as land, houses, and commercial buildings. We meticulously prepare for each auction by conducting thorough asset valuations, conducting necessary searches (e.g., land searches at the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning), and ensuring all legal documentation is in order. Our team excels in marketing auctions effectively, utilizing various channels to attract a wide pool of potential buyers and generate competitive bidding. We manage the entire auction process, from pre-auction preparations and public notices to the on-site auction event and post-auction formalities, including the transfer of ownership and handling of sale proceeds in strict accordance with the law and client agreements.

Debt Recovery & Auctioneering Coverage in Kenya
Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd provides commercial recovery, skip tracing, and auctioneering services across Kenya and all 47 counties in Kenya.
Understanding Auction Fees and Commission Structures in Kenya
As licensed Kenyan auctioneers, Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd maintains transparent and competitive fee structures. Our professional fees are typically calculated as a percentage commission on the sale price achieved at auction. The commission rate can vary depending on the type of asset being auctioned (movable vs. immovable property), the value of the asset, and the complexity of the sale. For instance, auctioning a high-value commercial property might involve a different commission structure than selling a fleet of vehicles. In addition to commission, there may be other disbursements such as advertising costs, valuation fees, and legal fees, which are passed on to the client at cost. We provide a detailed breakdown of all anticipated costs in KES (Kenyan Shillings) upfront, ensuring our clients have a clear understanding of the financial commitment. Our goal is to deliver exceptional value and a significant return on investment through efficient and professional auctioneering services, making us a trusted partner for all your asset disposal needs.
